Connecting external speakers

The Desktop Projector 9100 contains an internal stereo system consisting of an amplifier and two speakers. Although this system provides high-quality stereo output, a multimedia presentation may require external powered speakers or an external sound system.

When connecting external speakers, use the optional Proxima Powered Loudspeaker System (A55) or a similar system. References in the following procedure are to Figure 1-24.

1Insert the two RCA plugs on the Mini-jack to RCA cable adapter (C5105) into the projector’s AUDIO OUT ports.

2Connect the other end of the Mini-jack to RCA cable adapter (C5105) to the speaker cable (included with your speakers).

3Connect speaker A to speaker B using the cables supplied with the speaker system.
