About your computer’s A/V panel
The back of your computer has an A/V panel with ports that allow you to
connect a variety of audio input and output and video input devices.
Connecting audio equipment
Your Macintosh can play and record stereo sound from a variety of sources.
You can listen to or reproduce stereo sound by connecting audio equipment to
the sound input and output ports on the computer. If you have an internal
CD-ROM drive, you can also use your computer to play and record sound
from audio compact discs (CDs).
For information on using Macintosh system software to choose audio input
and output options, record an alert sound, or play audio CDs, see the “Sound”
topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
