Default [PC Speakers] Even seen a parallel port used to connect speaker to amp?

This is so damn weird that I just had to ask if anyone else has seen
this before. I was just looking at the user manual for a 5.1 PC speaker
system that I was thinking about bidding on, and I noticed that while 4
of the speakers connect to the amp with typical audio plugs, the
right-front speaker connects to the amp with a damn parallel plug!

Why the hell would anyone ever do such a thing?



If you look closer at the manual, you will see that the right front speaker
has the controls for fader, master volume, and on-off.

Still, my standard advice Insignia brand: avoid if possible.

The worst sort of Chinese junk.
