6. Connecting Computers (Stereo Sound Cards)

Utilize an USB cable for power source. Connect the USB 5V power source to the jack USB1 on the back of the 5.1 amplifier box. The second USB connector USB2 can replace the occupied USB connector of your computer for other USB devices. In case of audible interference noise (e.g. with Notebooks) disconnect the USB cable and install the external power supply.

PC stereo sound cards can be connected to the input AUX of the amplifier box by a PC audio cable with 3.5mm mini phono plugs at both ends.

Optionally a 5.1 amplifier/speaker system can be connected to the pass-through 5.1 front output connectors of the headphone amplifier. It provides the AUX signal for further playback devices.
