Love looking at this thread.
Perhaps stupid question, why use the audio amplifier ?

Thanks Mike.  The audio amp on the board is kinda crappy so this gives you better sound and easier control although in this case the volume dial will sit below the bezel so it won't be an adjust as you go option the way it was in little Ms Pac man
mike boss:
Oh, ok.

I follow, I assume your using one of the typical 48/60-in-1 Jamma boards?
If so I know what your taking about, adjusting the volume is a real b**ch!
I have several boards like this.

I don't know if I missed it in the thread, did you post links to where you got the parts ?
I never thought of that audio solution, but I like it.

Lastly if I may ask, how do you wire it ?
Richie_jones:
Great build...

Id find the lack of a volume control a bit of a pain, or is there going to be a software solution...

Is that for the menu music?  Please tell me that you disable that on your builds?  ;-)

Great work so far!

PL1:
If you want a mechanical solution, you could use a pulley system to connect to an external wheel like this.



Three supports (green) hold the external volume wheel (yellow) so it sticks out the side of the barrel through a notch in the top lip of the barrel.
