2.2.6. Speaker Connection

You need to have a set of self-powered speakers. Self-powered means that the speakers have their own power supply that plugs into an AC outlet or use batteries. It is strongly recommended that you refer to the documentation that came with your speakers to determine the type and connection for your speakers.

There are six jacks on the end bracket of the Ultimate Edge soundcard. External analog stereo sources with line level output can be connected to light blue 3.5mm stereo jack at the top of the soundcard bracket. A microphone can be connected to the pink 3.5mm mono jack.

If you have a set of PC stereo speakers, connect them to the green jack labeled “Front” on the end bracket of the soundcard. See the diagram in Figure 6.

Connect the Rear speakers to the black jack and connect the Center/LFE to the peach color jack on the end bracket of Ultimate Edge soundcard.

2.2.6.1.Digital Speakers

If you have digital speakers, or any type of digital decoder box that uses a digital audio (S/PDIF) signal, use the cable that is supplied with the speaker set to connect to the jack labeled S/PDIF on the end bracket of the soundcard. To enable Digital output go to the Mixer tab of the PSA2 HD panel (see Mixer tab description under Main Control Panel section of this document), select the advanced sub-tab and click on S/PDIF Enable radio button.
