This flex amp for the Game Boy Advance enhances the audio and also addresses issues with other flex amps that are too loud and don't have adjustability.
FEATURES:
- Please purchase your speaker separately (2W)
- Variable volume pot labelled "TRIM". This will adjust the peak volume of the amp. Set this during install with a small flat head screwdriver.
- Preinstalled additional capacitators to reduce speaker hum.
- If using an original speaker, there will be slight distortion at the maximum volume and the tabs on the back of the speaker may need to be trimmed
INCLUDED:
INSTALLATION:
- Remove the old speaker and trim off the old solder connections so they are flat with a pair of side cutters.
- Pre-tin the GBA motherboard (see photo showing locations).
- Solder on the flex amp at the four locations (see photo). I suggest to use a small amount of liquid flux to help neaten to joints and allow the solder to flow.
- Solder on the speaker.
- Using a small 2mm flat blade screwdriver (iFix part "2"), set the volume pot to the required peak level.
NOTES:
- This amp has a 'silence' mod installed. Which means that, when the volume wheel is closer to the off position, the volume will become completely silent. This helps to reduce the humming/hissing noises that can be heard when an amp is installed. However, please expect a less gradual increase of volume from off to receiving sound, it will start off at a higher-level volume than a quiet one.
