Well I built myself a cmoy. Surprised I actually got it since I have absolutely no clue about electronics.
Anyway I got some Alligator jumpers and did everything Tangent describe (thanks Tan).
Since I'm new at this and my soldering isn't quite up to par yet, I was wondering if its possible for all the sounds to be okay but the cmoy is broken. Like somehow the current flows to the headphone but the amp itself is broken.
The reason I ask this is because the sound quality seems to be the same. Well I'm actually running the cable through my onboard sound on my computer so that might be the reason. Also for the 1/8 inputs (I used Tangent recommendation), I clip on the alligator jumpers onto them and it seems that the left/right channels seem to be on reverse. Its probably just the jack itself but is it generally left, right, and ground in this order?
I'm pretty new at this so pardon for my n00b questions.
The headphone I'm using is the Sony MDR 3K (can't afford an amp after this
)
Thanks for the help. I'm about ready to box this up tomorrow. I hope to move onto Primeta sooon.
