    How do I get my external speakers working?

    I’ve been trying to get my external speakers working but I have no idea where to plug them in.
    This is my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/HyperF...d/#view=hgwQ7P
    These are the speakers: Goo.gl is sunsetting

    The speakers only have a male audio jack on them and a USB 2.0 for charging. Any help is appreciated.

    The back of the case should have a green female socket. Try that.

      There are 6 female sockets and they are all black or red

        According to the M/B specs. this board has 7.1 surround sound. The owners manual shows the speakers plugged into the Red female jack.

          Each of the red or black female ports should have a symbol indicating what the port is for.

            I’m not familiar with audio ports. On laptop (the PC I used before this one) there are only headphone and microphone jacks. Not any other.

                No, they aren’t working. (I plugged them into the red port)
                EDIT: The speakers work when I play audio. But when I test audio nothing plays.

                  Did you compress the top of the speakers to turn them on?
                  Are the speakers fully charged?
                  The green 3.5m jack is audio out.
                  The USB plug supplied can be used to listen to music as well as the charger.

                    I think I got it entirely working.

                        Look at my last comment, and yes you can mark it.
