dustfilledhobo Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I just searched the AA forum, and was able to find multiple A/V mods, but I am only concerned with modding my 2600 (4-switch), so I can plug a 1/4" cable into it and plug it into an amp (using the synthcart). It seems that I could simply connect a 1/4" female connector to the stella chip (I forgot which pin) and to ground, and then I'd be set. Will someone please tell me how to do this. Thanks in advance.

Ian Primus Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The two audio channels come off the TIA at pins 12 and 13. The best place to pick off the audio signal is probably right after those two signals get mixed. You'll need a capacitor beween your amplifier and the Atari because the signal will have some DC offset. A 1uf electrolytic does nicely. Solder the positive terminal of the capacitor to the connection of R206 and C208 on the Atari's board. Connect the tip of your audio connector to the negative terminal of the capacitor. Connect the ring of the audio connector to any of the numerous ground points on the Atari's board. There you go! -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustfilledhobo Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) Thanks, I looked all over the internet, and on this forum and I was unable find a straightforward answer to my seemingly simple question. Thanks for the fast reply and for the straightforward explanation. Dusty Edited February 25, 2009 by dustfilledhobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
