Hi, I'm new to all this so please forgive any idiocy on my part.
I got myself on old playstation 1 (scph-1002) with rca stereo jacks on the back. I connected these to some headphones via an adapter cable but the volume is too low.
So I'm thinking I want to get myself one of these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Motorcycle-Amplifier-Lightweight-Overheating-Protection-Perfect/dp/B00834RW6U, to step it up and add some control over the bass / treble. My question is how can I connect the output up to a 3.5mm jack?
I assume it might involve splicing up a 3.5mm jack cable and connecting the wire somewhere... It would be great if I had some proper speaks but all I've got to work with are headphones and pc speakers.
Also, for extra credit:
I realise it may be that the consoles power supply is just cheep and sleazy but although I'd say the sound possesses clarity and a clear distinction in the high treble and low bass frequencies... the mid ranges seem to fall flat, leaving the overall sound quality coming across as lacking and uninspiring (but I feel there is potential). Could the previously mentioned item help with this, or would there be some other way to account for what it lacks?
Gracias! and Much Thanks!
