Connect the audio cable between the CRW8424S 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 one that matches
your sound card’s connector. The connector at other end of the cable is
connected to “AUDIO OUT” of the CRW8424S drive. Make sure 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 SCSI bus. It is required for playing back audio CDs on the CRW8424S 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
CRW8424S drive’s front panel.
