Making External Input/Output Connections
Connecting an external audio source to the Wave/PC
™
unit
You can use the Wave/PC unit as extension speakers for an external audio source, such as a
tape or CD player. Connect the external source to the right and left AUX IN jacks (Figure 43).
Most audio cables are color coded. Match the red plug to the R (red) jack and the black or
white plug to the L (white) jack. For cable information, see “Input connection details” on
page 52.

Connecting external speakers to your Wave/PC unit
You can connect Bose
®
powered speakers to the right and left VARIABLE OUT jacks (located
below the AUX IN jacks) on the rear panel of the Wave/PC unit. Most audio cables are color
coded. Using the cable you received with the speakers, connect the red plug to the R (red)
jack and the black or white plug to the L (white) jack. If your speaker cable has three connec-
tors on each end, use only the two connectors that look alike. DO NOT USE THE THIRD
CONNECTOR.
Note:
Connecting cables to the VARIABLE OUT jacks shuts off the speakers in the Wave/PC
unit.
