PSP Rear Speaker Question?

[Mythtron]

Hi,

So if you've read my previous post ( https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=16151.0 ), you'll be glad to know that I've finally found the perfect speaker for my rear speaker mod .I fits incredibly well, as if it were made for this purpose (not likely since I pulled it from a pair of "iWave" Noise Canceling headphones )

  The problem, though, is that after I connect it with a normal 3.5mm jack (using the twist method  ) it does not produce any sound. I have no idea as to what could be causing this, and yes, I've tried different jacks....and I'm pretty sure the speaker is fine, since I was using it just a while ago before pulling it. The one thing I did notice, is that the speaker's 2 wires (+/-) have some sort of thread winding through them...What could that possibly be for??  and do I have to solder the wires to properly connect them?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if you're not too sure yourself, it will help.

Thanks,
Mythtron
PS: I will upload the images A/B as soon as possible.

You do not put it in the headphone jack. You wire it in parallel to the regular speaker. Connect the + of the big speaker to the gray wire of little speaker. Connect the - of the big speaker to the black wire of the little speaker.

chances are it wont work thro the hedfone jack, if u wana make it work you will need to constuct a amp. If you wana wire it internally, solder it in paralell to the speakers and i recomend adding a LM386
