Would it be possible to plug a laptop into a guitar amp without any damages to laptop?

I wouldn't imagine it damaging the laptop, but unless the amp has line/ cd ready inputs you could damage the guitar amp, plus most guitar amps aren't designed with enough coils to handle heavy low frequencies. Bass amps more often however should be ok as they are better designed to the low frequencies, I used to use a Crate bx100 bass amp as a subwoofer (it had a line level selector). Honestly though I think it's better to just use a proper sound system;^]

Thanks.
I always use my regular sound system. Just needed to clarify this for someone.
 
any CD player, home HIFI, surround sound system with RCA ports are all fine just rember to plug it into a line and not a phono
 
Not a problem at all;^]
