Connecting and enabling digital speakers or an audio
receiver
Connect 3.1, 4.1, or 5.1 digital speakers or an audio receiver to the SPDIF Line Out (orange) connector on
the back of the computer behind the connector cover, and then use the following procedure to enable the
speakers or audio receiver. If necessary, refer to the instructions that came with your speakers or audio
receiver.
NOTE: When SPDIF is connected, you can switch to the internal speakers without unplugging the SPDIF
Line Out.
To enable digital speakers or an audio receiver, use the SoundMax software that came with the computer.
1 Tap the SoundMAX icon on the taskbar.
2 Tap the Volume button.
3 In the SPDIF Interface area, select the Default button.
NOTE: To switch back to the internal speakers after the digital speakers are enabled, select the
Default button in the Internal Speakers area. Simply turning off the external speakers does not enable
the internal speakers; the internal speaker setting must be selected.
4 Configure sound by using the SoundMAX Listening Experience, Recording Experience, and
Advanced buttons.
