Connecting Speakers and Other Audio Devices
Your MacBook Pro comes with two built-in speakers, a built-in microphone, an
audio line in/optical digital audio in (,) port, and a headphone/optical digital
audio out (f) port.
You can connect external speakers, headphones, 5.1 surround systems, and other
sound output devices to the headphone (f) port. The headphone port is also an
S/PDIF stereo 3.5 mini-phono jack. When devices are plugged in, sound won’t come
through your built-in speakers. Unplug any headphones or speakers to hear the
computer speakers.
