Connecting external stereo speakers

You can take advantage of your computer’s stereo sound output by attaching
externally powered (amplified) speakers.

1

Assemble the speakers and the cable you need.

You need a cable with a stereo miniplug at one end to connect one or both
speakers to the computer.

Some speakers require a dual-plug adapter. Others, like those shown in the
next illustration, accept a single stereo miniplug and are joined by standard
speaker wires. See the documentation that came with your speakers for more
information.

2

Turn off the Macintosh.

3

Plug the stereo miniplug into the sound output port (

) on the Macintosh.

4

Connect the speakers together with speaker wires, if necessary.

Your finished connections should look something like this:
