Audio devices
Your computer offers built-in stereo speakers with sub-woofer. See the
section entitled “Audio” on page 29 for more information on these
features. However, in addition to the integrated devices, the two audio
ports on the front of the unit enable you to connect external audio
input and output devices.
You can plug an external microphone into your computer's micro-
phone-in jack. This offers the convenience of greater freedom of move-
ment, as well as improved audio input quality.
Connect headphones to the headphone jack for private listening and
improved audio output quality.
