using speakers

Speakers are included with the monitor (select models only), or are sold
separately. For details on connecting stereo speakers to the PC, see the quick
setup poster.

NOTE:

Speakers may be passive (no power button and no power cable) or active

(power button or power cable). Your PC supports only active (powered) speaker
systems; the speaker system must have its own power cable.

A stereo speaker set is a left-right, 2-channel speaker system. A multi-channel audio
speaker system is a system with more than two channels, and may include a
subwoofer. For example, 5.1 channels, referred to as a 6-speaker mode, uses two
front speakers (left-right), two rear speakers (left-right), a centre speaker, and a
subwoofer.

If your PC has multi-channel audio speaker capacity (select models only), you
can connect four channels for four speakers output or six channels for 5.1
speakers output.

Connect your speaker system to the PC and then configure the audio software
for sound output. Refer to ”connecting a multi-channel speaker system to your
pc” on page 44.
