6000 - Tosa / Headphones
« on: June 05, 2004, 04:48:57 pm »
Finding 50 ohm resistors, not mention the other bits I needed, proved a challenge in my little burgh, but then I got the bright idea of just using a pair of old cheap headphones I had lying around as the \'resistors\' and just wiring them in by means of a 3.5 mm Y connector I also had lying around. Rube Goldberg would be proud, but it works slick as can be. Thanks for the tip!
The motivation, by the way, is that I wrote a little python app to grab random tracks off of my music server, stash them on the Zaurus and then play them back with madplay. I liked it a lot and rather than try and find a command line music player for the Windows box which the speakers were connected to, I thought I would just plug them into the Zaurus. Now I am a happy camper. :-)
