Using Speakers
Your PC may or may not include a set of stereo
speakers or a subwoofer. For details on connecting
the speakers to the PC, see the Quick Setup guide.
Your PC may support a multi-channel audio system.
This type of audio system is a powered system (has
a power button) with more than two channels and
may include a subwoofer. For example, 6 speaker
mode (for 5.1 channels) uses two front speakers
(left-right), two rear speakers (left-right), a center
speaker, and a subwoofer.
A stereo speaker system is a 2-channel system that
can be passive (no power button) or powered.
For information on adjusting the sound level, refer
to “Adjusting the Speaker Volume” on page 3–22.
Your PC only supports powered (active)
Compaq speaker systems. The speakers
must have their own power cord.
