Cable connections
The loudspeakers can be used
with Bang & Olufsen audio,
video and link systems. They
may also be used with non-
Bang & Olufsen audio or video
systems, or connected to a
computer.
About the two switches …
The POSITION switch has three
settings. Which setting to use
depends on the position of the loud-
speaker. This is explained in ‘Adapt
the loud speaker to your room’
(pp. 8–10).
The LINE IN–POWER LINK switch
serves two purposes. If the loud-
speaker is connected to the system
via the LINE IN socket, it switches
between two line input levels. If
connected via the POWER LINK
socket, it switches between the
right and left sound channel.
Connection to Bang & Olufsen
systems
Use Power Link cables to connect
the loud speakers to your system.
Set the POWER LINK switch to
RIGHT or LEFT, the right and left
sound channel, respectively.
Connection to non-Bang &
Olufsen systems …
… To audio or video systems
Connect the system to the LINE IN
socket on each loudspeaker (mini-
jack – mono).
Set the LINE IN switch to LINE.
… To a personal computer
Use a special connector to connect
the computer sound card out put to
each of the LINE IN sockets on the
loud speakers (the connector is avail-
able as an optional accesory from
your Bang & Olufsen retailer).
Set the LINE IN switch to PC.
When set to PC, the loud speakers
will not auto matically switch to
standby mode when the sound
signal disappears. In this case, we
recommend that you switch off at
the wall socket, when not using the
computer.
