Terry,

You should go from the speaker jack on the K2 to a line in jack on the
sound card. The headphone jack audio source rolls-off some of the highs
and will make it a little harder to set the filters up. 

The speaker out is mono, so I would just use one channel. Some systems
will treat the the left channel as a mono source, but it really doesn't
matter.

A shielded cable is better, but as long as it is fairly short anything
should be fine.
