Those are speaker outputs not line level. You will need to find the speakers that suit the display or use an HDMI audio extractor and some self powered speakers.
Or you could get something like these 8ohm passive speakers and make a cable. Would need to know what size jack that is and get some speaker wire.
here's a better sounding set up about 50 bucks (i have this set up in my bedroom sounds great)

I am aware of the audio extractor option but would prefer a cleaner set-up.
Do you think this would work:
I have a pair of [Pyle PCB3BK's] (http://www.amazon.com/Pyle-PCB3BK-100-Watt-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B000MCGF1O) through a [Lepai LP2020+] (http://www.amazon.com/Lepai-LP-2020A-Tripath-Class-T-Amplifier/dp/B0049P6OTI/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1457094068&sr=1-2&keywords=Lepai+LP2020%2B) as my "shitty speaker" reference setup. About 50 bucks for the whole shebang, way cheaper than mixcubes, and works perfectly. Having the Bass and Treble controls on the amp helps for dialing in exactly what shittiness you are looking to reveal/work on.
I already went over budget by $80 so I was just thinking anything that you can find on craiglist/local pawn for 10 bucks. But if you have another $100 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA7VT44E7196
Here's an example of "el cheapo"(you might find the pair used for 5 bucks for example)..:
