Question: what is needed to route the audio cable to the pc?
Document: Even though it's not listed by Dell as being compatible, the AX510 (w/o the power supply) works just fine with the U2412M LED monitor. The monitor has the power port the speaker needs for power, but keep in mind that you will still need to route the audio cable to your PC.I was not expecting high quality audio, as this is not a PC that is being used to source music and movies, just the occasional YouTube video, movie trailer, video chat, and other audio from software and web sites.
The only reason to buy this is desktop space. It fits perfectly on the monitor, clean installation,visually unobtrusive. Cable work is clean.It's fine for getting windows beeps and warning signal (which, on a Photoshop machine, is all I need), but there was no money or effort spent on audio quality. If you actually want to listen to it, play a movie, or game, spend your money on something better.
There are no balance or tone controls on the speakers, so this might not be a good option for those who desire to play music at high levels (though most modern audio chipsets already give you this fine-tuning capability). But for applications involving voice (e.g. conferencing, general VoIP) or environments where extreme-volume are not needed, these are a good option.Good day...
I bought these to replace an old pair of 1w Logitech desktop speakers and was expecting something about the same. With newer widescreen monitors it's a pain to have speakers on the side; getting a sound bar mounted beneath seemed like the better solution.The sound bar attaches easily and (depending on your monitor) might be able to get its power or sound (via HDMI) directly from the monitor. If not, it does come with an external power supply and standard audio cable (to connect to your sound card).
I have Dell 2408WFP monitor. The sound bar snaps into place with no need for tools. The power is supplied by the built-in power connector in the monitor. I have a HDMI connection from the video card to the monitor. Because of this, I connect the speaker wire to the audio out from the monitor. No need to run a separate audio wire from PC to the sound bar. This makes a very convenient and neat setup. The volume control on the side of the sound bar is helpful. The two headphone outlets on the other side come handy when privacy is needed.
when I ordered this item, it indicates that no adapter needed but when I got it says additional adapter required.
We'll prolly look for some kind of wireless set-up here soon, perhaps to supplement this speaker, if that works, otherwise to replace.Really like being able to turn speaker off, also to adjust volume right by the mouse. Also love that there is no long cable with this.Installation was exceptionally easy.
It does exactly what I needed it to do. Didn't cost much; eliminates clutter; has very good sound for the price; looks good; has been problem free since purchase. All in all, very satisfactory!
Needed a speaker to listen to my music and videos and this was a great buy at a good price....blends in well with my flat screen monitor....plus a sweet little light displays in middle of speaker when you turn it on ...
It would have been nice to know that I needed a power supply before I bought this item. I had to go back and purchase an additional power supply to make the speakers work, otherwise once I got the power supply, everything worked fine.
Answer: Came with a hard-wired audio cable with a standard 3.5mm TRS headphone jack. though, the cable is only a few feet in length. if you need it to span any distance, you will need a barrel adaptor and another cable
