3. Using headphones or earbuds will help focus the sound and decrease ambient noise. Most laptops have a standard 3.5mm audio jack (just look on the side for a small round hole with a headset icon next to it). Often your sound will be automatically directed to these devices once you plug them in. If not, check for a pop-up message from your computer, or redirect the audio output manually.

If you have Bluetooth headphones that do not have an audio cable, you will have to sync them to your device.

4. An easy alternative is to purchase a speaker which plugs directly into your USB port. These devices generally require no setup.
