6. Speakers are popular output devices used with computer systems.
They receive audio input from the computer's sound card and
produce audio output in the form of sound waves. Most computer
speakers are active speakers, meaning they have an internal
amplifier which allows you to increase the volume, or amplitude,
of the sound. Speakers usually come in pairs, which allows them
to produce stereo sound from two separate audio channels.
