Adding auxiliary inputs to stereos that don't have them
Hi all,
I'm a big music fan, so we have radios all over the house. We have an Emerson portable AM/FM/CD player in the dining room; we have 'The Curve' by Suncoast radio in the bathroom, along with a cheapo shower radio in the shower; and various other ones around the house. These do not have auxiliary inputs standard. I am in need of information on where to tap into left, right and ground in order to take advantage of the powered capability of the speakers in these radios. A few reasons for doing this: a) I don't want to be beholden to headphones to listen to my mp3 player, not to mention carrying it around w/me about the house. b) Those FM transmitters have little range and low power, plus the stations they broadcast over are used in the D/FW, TX area. c) I don't have money with which to buy better transmitters. d) Why carry around powered speakers with me, when there are some in every room? e) I have a bunch of 1/8" audio jacks and plugs resting in a parts bin awaiting use. My goal is to make as few cosmetic changes as possible. Adding just a switch for the extra input and a jack or plug to input the input to would be ideal. I could figure that part out if someone can answer the next paragraph... On the inside, where would i find the usual place the signals go to in order to reach the powered (amplified) speakers in the various units? If anyone can give me specific components, chip numbers (and which legs), etc. to look for, that'd be great. I't be better than poking around in there with trial and error. If you need more info, let me know... --Electro-- aka The Other David |
