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 maintain musical sound “realism”.
The satellite speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent 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)

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 outputs. An adapter cable is required for this connection.
Altec Lansing sells the adapter cable (AAC1) on its website.
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 speakers. 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 relationship 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.
