Seeing as though my Intec screen has gotten a tumor and doesn't know what audio means...can I revive audio from another source. Like buy my own (or get) speaker and wire that through a potentiameter to an audio spot on say a NOAC, possible...or not, SPEAK NOW!

Yes it's possible to take the audio from the board, possibly run it through an audio amp, and then to speaker(s). Not hard if you've taken a gool look at the way Ben did the NES in the book, or the guy who did it over at classicgaming.com/nestable. So just take the audio output, boost it if you have to, and then route it to a spearker or two.

Can I do it with just a potentiameter or speaker?

no, because the audio signal is way too weak. You need some kind of amplifier to get it to increase to be able to make the speaker generate sound.
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

You can always make your own amp, with a potentiometer...

And from a NOAC I guess, anyone know an audio amp I can use?

You can take on out of an old pair of computer speakers (the kind that plug into a headphone jack)

ifyou haven't destroyed the contacts on the mobo he you could trace the two to their own audio power amp...and controlling with a pot

The only issue is to find the righ low voltage schematic that uses a small op amp

Good luck finding what you need

Ps. always remember that everything is possible with the right applications of science, manpower, and most importantly MONEY!!!!!!

check out segasonicfan (if the grievance over the stolen portable is over) he added a power amp to his pstwop and that is why the audio quality in he video he posted was sooooo good

Is this thread old?

Here's a 4 Watt audio amplifier I found on the interweb: http://web.telia.com/~u85920178/use/afamp-4w.htm

DISCLAIMER: I have not tested this circuit, and therefore do not know if it works, the sound quality or anything of that matter. The parts look cheap though, have at it!
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...
