Hi,
I found some spearkers my brother wasn't using for his w810i sony walkman phone, they attached to the phone via tha phones standard connection. There was really good sound from them for the size and I thought it would be cool if I could use them on my ipod/discman etc.
So I got an old pair of cheap headphones, cut off the wires, cut off the connection to the phone speakers, and soldered the wires together. To my joy it worked, I have never done anything like this before, not even soldered anything!
But the reason I am posting is the sound is nowhere as loud as it was with the phone.
Could anybody give any suggestions how I can get the sound output louder? Is it possible the phone was providing power/amplification to the speakers somehow?
These are the speakers and phone:
