Plugging a soundcard line-out directly into a JPAC
Diewrecked:
TPB - many thanks but yeah that really is overkill for what I'm after!
G1zm0 - that looks ideal except I really CAN NOT solder for toffee!! Is there one available that you know of that I can just plug in in-line, ie, with stereo minijack sockets to plug into my soundcard and speakers and a little molex (or whatever) to plug into the PSU? Sorry but I really am cr@p at electronics. Otherwise it looks like I'm going down the "bin them and replace with noddy PC speakers" route.
Thanks again everyone.

Find a dead circuit board and start practicing.

These blocks must be suitable for complete NOOB's on soldering:

This is the documentation
You can feed the modules with the 12V from the PC power supply. 1amp is enough for the 12W module, 500mAmp for the 3.5 watt version. Do not connect a AC transformer directly.
They are also available in 12 and 18 watt
You put m between the PC and the jamma-plug.

Hi guys
So quick update - maybe I'm just lucky but my Goliath Mk 3 cab has speakers that work with the line-out of my soundcard connected directly into my JPAC. Don't need any kind of amp, they just work!! Well chuffed ;D
My trouble now is that I'm only getting sound out of the left speaker. I have them wired to the JPAC with a stereo minijack plugged into the line-out of my soundcard, with the other end cut and stripped, such that the live from left and right (ie the red and white shielded cables) are twisted together and connected to the SPK+ terminal on the JPAC, and the ground (black shielded cable) is connected to the SPK- terminal. Is this correct? I did try with the black cable connected to the GND terminal but then I got no output whatsoever.
Anyone shed any light please?
Many thanks in advance yet again you guys :)

From the J-PAC FAQ's :

The JAMMA standard is for only one speaker, mono sound.
