Connecting external stereo speakers

You can take advantage of your computer’s stereo sound output by attaching
external powered (amplified) speakers.

1

Assemble the speakers and the cable you need.

You need a cable with stereo miniplugs at each end to connect one or both
speakers to the computer. (Some speakers require a dual-plug adapter.
Others, like those shown here, accept a single stereo miniplug and are joined
by standard speaker wires.)

The following illustration shows the equipment configuration and the
connections for a computer sound system.

2

Turn off the Macintosh.

3

Plug a stereo miniplug into the sound output port on the Macintosh.

4

Plug a stereo miniplug into the Audio In port on one of the speakers.

If the speakers take a dual-plug cable, connect both plugs to the speakers’
Audio In ports.
