Make sure your speakers are designed for computer use.

Do not place diskettes on the speakers; their magnetic field may damage the data on the diskettes.

Do not connect an external speaker to the AV Out connector but to the headphone connector. It will not damage the speaker, the sound will only come out from one speaker.

There is no need to connect the external speakers and the subwoofer at the same time; the sound quality will not improve when connecting both devices to your computer.

Connecting an external microphone

Your VAIO notebook does not contain an internal microphone. If you need to use a sound input device, for example to chat on the Internet, you need to plug in an external microphone.

To connect an external microphone, proceed as follows:

1Plug the microphone cable (1) into the microphone connector (2) identified by the symbol.

Make sure your microphone is designed for computer use.
