i just tried it with LM386 wired using the diagram i drew. it works but the sound quality is horrible. It has more bass than parallel speaker connection though. i just wired it back in parallel.

Title: Re: how do u install a LM386
Post by: Tec_ on January 31, 2008, 07:51:53 PM

a filter cap would solve that problem

Title: Re: how do u install a LM386
Post by: redryno1221 on January 31, 2008, 09:26:23 PM

So then where would the filter cap go in the circuit....are there any other caps we need to know about to do this mod???

Title: Re: how do u install a LM386
Post by: CrkPyro on February 01, 2008, 08:00:12 AM

a coupling capacitor is to block dc voltages going to the speaker. it would go in between the lm386 and the speaker just like in the diagram or between the speaker and ground if you really wanted to(not the best choice).

Title: Re: how do u install a LM386
Post by: anthonyta on August 01, 2008, 09:50:18 AM

so the 5v and ground goes to the speaker output on the mobo instead, correct? isn't where you put the speakers the input to the lm386? that would make everything go backwards. it still amplifies?

Title: Re: how do u install a LM386
Post by: Blazinkaos on August 01, 2008, 01:02:05 PM
