Using Speakers

Speakers are included with the monitor (select models only) or are sold separately. For
details on connecting stereo speakers to the computer, see the setup poster.
NOTE: Speakers may be passive (no power button and no power cord) or active (power
button or power cord). Your computer supports only active (powered) speaker systems; the
speaker system must have its own power cord.
A stereo speaker set is a left-right, two-channel speaker system. A multichannel audio
speaker system is a system with more than two channels, and it may include a subwoofer.
For example, 5.1 channels, referred to as a six-speaker mode, uses two front speakers
(left-right), two rear speakers (left-right), a center speaker, and a subwoofer.
If your computer has multichannel audio speaker capacity (select models only), you can
connect four channels for four-speaker output or six channels for 5.1 speaker output.
Connect your speaker system to the computer and then configure the audio software for
sound output.
