Physical Connections
The rear panel of the Revolution 7.1 has the following jacks:
1. Digital Out
- The Digital Output jack is a S/PDIF Coaxial output. You can
use an RCA cable (sold separately) to connect this to a digital recorder,
mixer or surround receiver. A 75 Ohm digital coaxial cable is required for
this type of connection.
2. Mic In (pink)
- The mic input allows you to connect a mono microphone
for recording, videophone or voice recognition applications. The jack is a
3-conductor TRS-type jack for condenser (2-conductor) and electret (3-
conductor) type microphones
3. Line In (blue)
- This is a stereo line-level input that can be used to record
into an audio recording program.
4. Front L/R, Phones (green)
- This jack should connect to the powered Left
and Right speakers, located to the left and right of your computer monitor.
If you have just a two-speaker stereo setup, this is the jack to use. You
can also plug a pair of stereo headphones into this jack.
5. Center/Subwoofer (orange)
- This line-level output connects to powered
Center and Subwoofer speakers. The Center channel speaker should be
directly above or below your monitor and the subwoofer can go just
about anywhere it will fit in your room.

powered Surround Left and Right speakers. These speakers should be
located to your left and right sides, just behind your head.
7. L/R Center Surround (silver)

Left and Right Center Surround channel speakers. These speakers should
be located directly behind you as you are looking at your computer monitor.
