Connecting the sound to a TV or stereo system At times you may prefer to use external audio instead of the computer's built-in speakers. For example, when you use a TV or other external display device you can use that device's speakers, or when you use the computer's built-in display you can connect to external speakers or a stereo sound system for higher quality sound. You can connect the sound to external audio devices in two ways: ❖ Using the headphone jack on the left side of the computer. This lets you connect directly to headphones, powered speakers, or a stereo system that supports input from a headphone output. You need a cable (not shipped with your computer) with a 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo plug on one end and a plug compatible with your sound system on the other end (typically an RCA type connector). ❖ Using the S/PDIF jack on the left side of the computer. This lets you connect to a sound system that can accept the digital optical signal from your computer. You need an S/PDIF cable (not shipped with your computer) with a Toslink 1/8" (3.5mm) mini plug on one end and a plug compatible with your sound system on the other end.
