Changing sound output

I have an iMac running Mac OS X version 10.6.6. Every time I try to listen to the music out of my iTunes library the vocals are buried. It almost sounds like a Karaoke track. The sound is fine when I listen to Pandora. I have a Klipsch system with 2 speakers and a sub. The jack goes in either the output or headphones. The sound only works when I use the headphones. Why won't it recognize the speakers in the other port? The only option it gives me in output is headphones, and headphone port.

Please help!!!!

have you got a silly EQ setting in itunes? make sure the mid regions arent pulled down, nor any bass or treble boosts. this will mask vocals.
