English Español Français Nederlands Thai Korean S. Chin Arabic SETTING UP Choosing a speaker location The angled design of these speakers allows them to direct sound upward toward a seated listener. So placing them on a desktop is a good choice. Magnetic shielding protects your computer monitor from interference when the speakers are positioned close to it. Place the speaker that has a volume control knob on the front to the right of your computer and within easy reach. Place the other speaker on the left (Figure 2). Note: LEFT and RIGHT labels on the back of the two speakers can serve as a placement aid. Figure 2 Speakers in position near the computer LEFT speaker RIGHT speaker Volume control Headphone jack You may prefer placing the RIGHT speaker on your left to more easily reach the volume control and the headphone jack. This does no harm, although it changes how you hear the left and right stereo sound. For an accurate sound stage, the music recorded from stage left during a live performance comes from the left speaker. Changing the placement of LEFT and RIGHT speakers alters that effect. 7
