Default Bare wire speakers into Jack socket problem..

Ok, I need a set of my speakers (Modified Boston A40's) to go into the stereo (Front Left + Right) Jack socket on my 7.1 soundcard.

But they only seem to work if I take a Jack - Phono lead into my amp then plug them into there.. this is fine if I only want stereo sound, but unfortunatley I'm going for 7.1 and I'm buying a 5.1 set to go in around but my current two are better than those so I want them Front Left + Right.

The back of the speakers doesn't have Optical or Digital connection, only Push connectors for bare-wire.

Is this as simple as putting the Pos + Neg together into 1 (on both speakers) and then joining the two mono's to make the Stereo and soldering that onto a Jack plug?

Thanks.

Now I'm having that horrible realisation that this might not be possible... as the speakers would have no amplification... or does that not matter..
