Connect the audio cable between the CRW2100E drive and the
computer’s sound card, or the motherboard’s audio connector if it has
built-in audio. One end of the audio cable has two connectors: a
vertically-mounted type (PH) and a horizontally-mounted type (MPC).
Choose the one that matches your sound card’s connector. The
connector at other end of the cable is connected to “ANALOG AUDIO
OUT” on the CRW2100E drive. Make sure the connector’s lug is at the
top.

You do not need to connect the audio cable to write audio CDs since the audio is
passed over the IDE bus. It is required to play back audio CDs on the CRW2100E
drive via the computer’s sound card. However, if a CD-ROM drive is already
connected to the sound card, you should use this drive to play back your audio
CDs. To listen to audio CDs without a computer sound card, connect headphones
or speakers to the headphone jack on the CRW2100E drive’s front panel.

If you use the digital audio output, you need a digital audio cable with an
appropriate connector at each end, and a sound card that has a digital audio input.
