format to use when sending audio
signals out of the PC. Here the

each speaker (balancing), and a host of specialty features. A wizard is also
available to help guide the user through the process.

Wizard to switch the output from Line_In jack to Rear Speaker Out and the
output from Mic_In jack to Center Speaker Out, Subwoofer (Center/LFE
output).If your back panel I/O have 5 audio jacks, refer to Chapter 2.8 “Audio
Connectors” for details. No need to use Speaker Setup Wizard to switch
audio jack outputs.
