After installing the audio driver, you are able to use the 4-/6-channel
audio feature now. To enable 4- or 6-channel audio operation, first connect 4 or
6 speakers to the appropriate audio connectors, and then select 4- or 6-channel
audio setting in the software utility.
There are two ways to utilize the function and connect the speakers to
your computer:
Use the optional S-Bracket
. If your motherboard supports S-Bracket
and you have installed S-Bracket in the computer, you can connect
two speakers to back panel’s Line-Out connector, and the rest of
speakers to S-Bracket.
Use the back panel only (without S-Bracket)
. If you do not have
a S-Bracket, you can connect all speakers to the audio connectors
on the back panel.
After installing the C-Media drivers, you can attach the speakers for 4-
/6-channel audio output. Always connect the speakers to the LINE OUT
connectors. Different connector configurations for 2-/4-/6-channel operations
are listed below:
