I finally got a good host for my scanners ( Hopefully getting the scanners at xmas ) It's a PC case, so a nice metal frame, it's got enough space for 3 lasers ( 1 green and 2 red ) so it'll hopefully make a nice RGY , just hope it has enough space for all the scanner parts, I'm sure it will :)

Would you need to take that apart and solder the leads onto the board, or can you just use normal headphone jacks for it and cut one end off for the scanner end ?

Also do you have a link to Dr. lavas amp ?

You need to take the sound card apart, could you not just plug in leads that have one end bare and attach them to the amp :-? ?

you need to bypass the onboard capacitors that prevent the sound card from outputting constant DC voltages (which is actually what we want, so they are bypassed)

but as mario said no you cant just plug in into the jacks you need to solder before the capacitors

kool, would it be possible to jump the leads before the caps, onto the sockets ? or is it just easier to solder onto the board ?
