Connecting Speakers or Microphone

Speakers are included with the monitor (select models only), or they are sold separately.

NOTE: For product information on the HP Support Web site, go to:

http://www.hp.com/support

For details about connecting stereo speakers to the computer, see the setup poster.

NOTE: Speakers may be passive (no power button or power cord) or active (power button or power cord). Your computer supports only active (powered) speaker systems; the speaker system must have its own power cord.

Astereo speaker set is a left-right, two-channel speaker system. A multichannel audio speaker system is a system with more than two channels, and it may include a subwoofer. For example, 5.1 channels, referred to as six-speaker mode, uses two front speakers (left-right), two rear speakers (left-right), a center speaker, and a subwoofer.

If the computer has multichannel audio speaker capacity (select models only), you can connect four channels for four-speaker output, or six channels for 5.1 speaker output.

Connect the speaker system to the computer, and then configure the audio software for sound output.

Sound Connector Types

Your model may include one of three analog sound connector types on the back of the computer:

￿Three connectors

￿Six connectors

￿Audio card

The connectors are 3.5 mm (1/8-inch) stereo mini-jacks that connect from the back of the computer to speakers and microphones.
