Using external speakers or headphones
Your computer is equipped with a full stereo sound system
with internal speakers. Instead of using the internal speakers,
you can connect headphones or a pair of external stereo
speakers.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Use amplified speakers that require an
external power source. Other types of speakers will be inadequate
to produce sound from the computer.
