Before placing them there, attach four of the supplied rubber feet to the recesses on the bottom of each speaker, for protection and added stability (see Figure 2). Set the powered speaker on the right and the accessory speaker on the left as you face the monitor (see Figure 3).

Figure 3 Where to place Companion 2 speakers Powered speaker Accessory speaker 8 Setting Up Setting Up How to connect the speakers The speaker cable is already attached to the accessory speaker at one end . Plug the other end into the TO ACCESSORY SPEAKER jack on the powered speaker (see Figure 4). How to connect to the sound source You can connect up to two sound sources to Companion® 2 speakers – your computer and an external portable audio player, for example. While some portable audio players operate through the computer’s sound card, others have a direct audio output jack. Before making any connections, consult the owner’s manuals for the equipment you will be using to familiarize yourself with how it connects. Use AUDIO INPUTS A for your computer or computer and portable audio player combination. Use AUDIO INPUTS B for an external portable audio player with an audio output jack, or for other components. The sound source connected to B will play through your speakers simultaneously with the sound from your computer. Two audio input cables are supplied with the speakers. If your computer has a stereo mini jack, use the cable with a stereo mini plug. Otherwise, use the cable with RCA plugs on both ends. Match the colors on the connectors to the colors on the jacks, red to red and white to white. The red goes to the powered speaker, and the white goes to the accessory speaker. 1. Connect one end of the audio input cable to AUDIO INPUTS A. 2. Connect the other end to your computer’s AUDIO OUTPUT jack. We recommend using LINE OUT if your computer sound card offers more than one option. 3. To connect a separate portable audio player, or another source, repeat steps 1 and 2 using AUDIO INPUTS B.
