Apple Power Macintosh 7200 - Manual (Page 43)

43 Connecting Additional Equipment
The computer’s sound ports accept these 3.5 mm connectors:
The smaller connector (a “stereo miniplug”) is found most often on stereo
equipment. The slightly longer connector is found on the Apple PlainTalk
Microphone and other voice quality microphones. If your equipment has a
different type of connector, you can purchase an adapter at an electronics
supply store.
Connecting most audio equipment
To play or record sound with your Macintosh, you can attach a microphone,
amplifier, tape recorder, headphones, or a pair of speakers. (When you have
headphones connected, you don’t hear beeps or other computer noises
through the built-in speaker.)
For specific instructions on connecting a microphone, skip to the next
section, “Connecting and Positioning a Microphone.” For specific instructions
on connecting speakers, see “Connecting External Stereo Speakers,” later in
this chapter.
Follow these steps to connect most audio equipment to the Macintosh:
1 Make sure that the audio equipment has a cable with a stereo miniplug connector.
If it does not, attach an adapter that has a stereo miniplug.
2 Place the audio equipment near the Macintosh.
3 Shut down the Macintosh and turn off the audio equipment.
