 anyone ever replaced the 2.5mm mini audio jack with a 3.5mm audio jack?
Could
 this be done or is it totally not worth the trouble? I'm not fond of the
 adapter and i'd really prefer to just plug headphones directly in.


I agree the adaptor is scary- it seems to put enormous mechanical stress on
the whole arrangement.

However, since cellphones have pretty much standardized on 2.5mm stereo
plugs for headsets, you can often pick up a cheap throw-away handsfree
device, or better yet look for one that was thrown away as defective. I
would suggest you cut the cord and solder on a stereo mini 3.5mm socket and
make a cord-adaptor.

Thanks

[LIB] Audio and Mic Jacks

Subject: Audio and Mic Jacks

Hey all,

I've been investigating a little bit about the Libretto 100CTs audio jack 
after overclocking it to 266. (BTW, thanks everyone for teaching me how to 
install Win2k on a Lib without CD, worked like a charm). I was curious if 
anyone ever replaced the 2.5mm mini audio jack with a 3.5mm audio jack? Could 
this be done or is it totally not worth the trouble? I'm not fond of the 
adapter and i'd really prefer to just plug headphones directly in.

Thanks again,
Will

I'd like to replace the mono mic input jack with a stereo jack.  Seems I 
recall looking at Xin's website and seeing the Yamaha OPL3-SAx chip having 
the capability of a host of inputs, including stereo mic and stereo line-in.

However after having done some testing with audio recording, I've found the 
noise level for the mic using the internal sound, and both the mic and 
line-in jacks on the WavJammer sound card are unacceptable for my purposes.  
I was trying to record the sound of my Fujitsu HDD, and found that unless I 
had a mic right up against the L100 case, both sound card  internal chip 
noise overpowered the sound of the HDD at any more than about 4-6 inches.

Wonder how that Roland sound card performs recording low level signals like 
these with a mic.
