[QUOTE="Thorson, post: 193353"] No, I understand you :) I'm aware that they have no audio amplifyer. They only came with that stupid proprietary plug, which has 4 rings and a collar with an inside and an outside. When you cut the plug off, there are 6 wires - 2 for audio ground, and 1 for left and another for right audio. The other two I assume (since they're red and black) are the 20w power, which connect to the collar on the plug (tested with an ohmeter, so I know that for a fact). I'll post the pinout once I get home and can upload it to Photobucket. As I said, I tried to use that 20w AC adapter from Radio Shack to plug into the red and black wires. It seems logical to me that those are for power, as they would hook up to a power conduit when plugged into a G4. And they're red and black :P I dunno. Stupid proprietary hardware. [/QUOTE]
