Hey I've got a question about this mod: http://www.littlesounddj.com/lsd/prosound. Wouldn't the built in speaker still be active when using the new audio out? Are there better mods that still leave the headphone jack? I want to have two 1/8' jacks, one for headphones, one for line out.

Yeah, there's a lot of variations to this mod out there. The one you linked to is a pretty primitive early version, but it would result in two 1/8" jacks as you described, but one is wholly external and only the headphone jack turns off the speaker when you plug in a cable.

Tons of people (including me) have installed surface mounted 1/4" and 1/8" jacks (even RCA). You could use a switched jack to turn the speaker off when you plug into the line in.

What's a switched jack? Can I get one from radio shack?

Maybe you just meant a jack with a switch...that's not a bad idea. Thanks for the infos!

Okay. I was wondering what those extra contacts were for. That's cool, thanks.
