INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the extraordinary world of Altec Lansing
Multimedia high fidelity sound.
The Altec Lansing Multimedia Computer Speaker System
provides the best computer audio output possible.
Connect these computer speakers to a PC audio card for
high quality audio to enhance music, games and PC
entertainment.
DESCRIPTION
The AVS300 is an amplified speaker system featuring a
subwoofer for extended low frequency response and high
quality multimedia performance. A patented control
circuit automatically boosts bass at low volume to main-
tain musical sound “realism”.
The satellite speakers are magnetically shielded to pre-
vent color distortion on video displays. However, the
subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and should be
placed on the floor away from the computer monitor or
television.
The AVS300 is compatible with popular gaming systems,
desktop and laptop computers, home stereo and portable
music systems and most other audio devices.
USE OF CONTROLS (SEE FIGURE 1)
Power On/Off (F)
Push power button to turn power on and push again to
turn power off. A green LED power indicator (D) on the
base of the right satellite will glow to show power is on.
V
olume Up/Down (E)
Turn the volume control clockwise to increase volume
and counter-clockwise to decrease volume.
SUBWOOFER LEVEL CONTROL
(FIGURE 1) (A)
The subwoofer level control is on the side of the sub-
woofer. Turn the knob clockwise to increase volume and
counter-clockwise to decrease volume.
SET UP CONNECTIONS (SEE FIGURE 2)
1. Insert the orange plug from the RIGHT satellite into
the input marked RIGHT on the subwoofer. This input is
color coded with an orange dot. WARNING: DO NOT
plug any other device into this input as DAMAGE WILL
OCCUR.
2. Connect the lime audio plug from the right satellite to
the 3.5mm output jack on the audio source. The AVS300
is compatible with any audio device with a 3.5mm stereo
headphone or line level output including computer sound
cards, portable CD players, MP3 players and others.
Most gaming systems have both RCA left and right out-
puts. An adapter cable is required for this connection.
Altec Lansing sells the adapter cable (AAC1) on its web-
site.
3. Connect the DC power supply (B) into the connector
on the side of the subwoofer.
4. Connect the DC power supply to the AC wall outlet.
The unit is now ready to operate.
PLACEMENT OF SPEAKERS
All stereo information is heard from the satellite speak-
ers. The subwoofer contains no stereo information and
sound is non-directional. As a result, the subwoofer does
not necessarily have to be placed in any particular rela-
tionship to the satellites. Placing the subwoofer on the
floor close to the wall provides maximum bass efficiency.
The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and should
not be placed near video displays.

DESCRIPCIÓN
Las AVS300 son un sistema de bocinas amplificado que
contiene un subwoofer para una respuesta de baja fre-
cuencia extensa y desempeño multimedia de alta cali-
dad. Un circuito de control patentado automáticamente
impulsa los sonidos graves en un volumen bajo para
mantener el "realismo" del sonido musical.
Las bocinas satélite están blindadas magnéticamente
para evitar la distorsión de color en las pantallas de
video. Sin embargo, el subwoofer no está blindado mag-
néticamente y se debe colocar en el piso lejos del moni-
tor de la computadora o la televisión.
Las AVS300 son compatibles con los sistemas de juegos
más populares, computadoras de escritorio y portátiles,
sistemas estereofónicos domésticos y sistemas
portátiles de música así como la mayoría del resto de los
dispositivos de audio.
