Phillips CM8833-II monitor sound-Help Please?
« on: May 24, 2005, 10:40:38 PM »
Hi all.I just bought a Phillips monitor that has model number-CM11342/25G on label to rear of monitor.But has CM8833-II printed inside front flap.It's a great condition monitor,but I cant seem to get sound from it,apart from when I plug headphones into side socket?Does this model have built in speakers or not?I am connecting it to my A1200 with 3 phono leads-composite video,left+right sound?Any answers please? :-?

Yes great thanks.I don't think I will whack it! Well not just yet anyhow,cos it's got a great picture+knowing my luck,I'd probrably lose that too-lol.But I will get its case aprt over weekend and have a closer look.Mind you,even without sound,it was a real bargain for 99 pence!! :-)

Hi,yep,I thought bowt plugging some pc speakers in.Could I use some with mains adapter that plugs into end of kettle lead going into back of monitor,and if so,where would I plug the single phono plug-would that go into headphone jack on monitor? :-o

Thanks all for your help.My monitor is a '93 model,pictures excellent+looks to have been generally well looked after,cos it's in great cosmetic nick,so I guess somethings come adrift or blown inside.I do have a amp with the required aux inputs+bowt 150 watt Missions for a good output,so I will probrably connect them up.But I will take a look inside monitor in next few days.Cheers. :-D

Thanks.I tried to start taking monitor apart+not having taken one apart before,I was a bit concerned,I might do more damage than good,seeing the circuit board pulling out from front of monitor as I eased back off.Does back+ base panel come away without the need to dis-connect any wires?Only I chickened out+put it back together! :-?  :-?  :-D
