Thanks for the advice,will have to contact him.I've posted a question in tech talk,a fellow A/G uses stax earspeakers with a driver hooked up to his mc40,he is going to find out a bit more to see if they will work with a mc240.
As far as DIY goes Im useing a ps1 a my project cd player,Ive added a ps2 remote to it and added a gps as my av screen so I can adjust/skip songs.That was simple, just plug and play.
Im going to rechassis it.If I dont mess that up I might just have ago at something more serious.
Theres plenty of good V bad on the net RE: ps1 as a cd player Im thinking it would interest the anti commercial DIY side of your nature.
