Connecting External Speakers or Headphones
You can connect external sound output devices (not supplied), such as speakers or headphones, to your computer.
Since your computer is capable of outputting both analog and digital signals through the headphones/OPTICAL OUT jack,
you can connect an S/PDIF device such as digital headphones or an audio/video amplifier to the jack and enhance the sound
quality of your computer. For more information, see the manual that came with your S/PDIF device.
!
To hear sound from the S/PDIF device connected to the headphones/OPTICAL OUT jack, you need to change the sound output device. For the detailed
instructions, see How do I change the sound output device? (page 171).
