Using Beats Audio™ (select models only)
Your HP TouchSmart PC features audio connectors (headphone and Audio Out ) that are optimized for Beats Audio™ headphones and external audio systems (purchased separately). Select HP TouchSmart PC models also include four on the keyboard.
Your computer comes ready for you to experience music with Beats enabled. To disable Beats, press the Beats toggle button; the Beats off icon appears on the screen. To turn Beats on, press the Beats toggle button again. If your keyboard does not contain the Beats toggle button, press Fn+B to enable and disable Beats. To view the Beats user interface, from the Start screen, type b, and then select HP Beats Audio.
All you need to do is plug the Beats Audio headphones into the side headphone connector to experience crisp and clear sound separation. To experience the full capability of BEATS audio using the internal speakers, HP recommends connecting a matching HP subwoofer to the Sub connector on the back panel. If you are using an external audio system, plug it into the Audio Out connector on the back panel.
