Just purchased this desktop unit. Do I have to install speakers to get the sound and if so, how? I am not that knowledgeable about computers. The guy at the store told me it had speakers....but apparently, it is only wi-fi compatible. Please any help is appreciated!!

hi @Ellenm4139 

yes, you need to connect amplified speakers for desktop computer

https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c07570307

Back I/O ports

  • (1) RJ-45 Ethernet port
  • (1) HDMI 1.4b/HDCP 2.2 port
  • (1) VGA port
  • (3) Audio ports (Line-in/Line-out/Microphone)

no picture here, but it should look like this
generally green connector

7 line in

8 line out ( speaker )

9 microphone

 

Tampa2 back I/O panel
