E.g.: > > http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-solder/ Thanks for all the tips everyone. I've gone for an 80w Weller soldering iron and will use a "twin 1/4" mono jacks to 3.5mm stereo jack cable" and cutting the 3.5mm stereo jack off and replacing it with a mini xlr. Hopefully this will improve the audio quality just by the reduction of connections (the coupler gives very fuzzy connection). Thanks, James. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
