Acer makes a wide range of computers, both laptops and desktops. All of them have the capability for the addition of powered computer speakers through an audio output jack built into the computer. There's no technical expertise or special knowledge required to connect speakers to an Acer computer. It should be noted that there's nothing unique about the method used in connecting speakers to Acer computers. The connections are universal throughout the computer industry.
