GrizzLee Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Title says it all. I've owned several ADAMS over the years, none ever have sound with the Atari module. Is there an EASY fix? OR am I looking at building custom circuitry? -Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My memory is fuzzy on this. I'm sure NIAD Jim knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My memory is fuzzy on this. I'm sure NIAD Jim knows. Dude! You got me. I can actually state for a fact that I never plugged-in an Exp. Mod. #1 - Atari VCS Adaptor to an ADAM Computer. The only time I used the VCS Adaptor was with a ColecoVision system. The method of Audio/Video hookup (RF Box and Cable or Monitor Cable) on the Stand-Alone system should not matter. GrizzLee... do you have a Stand-Alone ADAM or the Exp. Mod. #3 ADAM? Does anyone else know the answer?

I could swear I used an Expansion Module #1 on my ADAM when I was a kid, and I don't recall ever having any sound problems. I think I'd remember something like that...

I've got a homemade "Aux video" cable and I can't get sound from the Atari module either unless I use the RF output cable. The Atari module only has RF sound output.

Ahhh, that makes a bit more sense. No solutions though eh?? Yes, I run my ADAM using A/V cables. I modified my Adam so I don't need the funky din connector (I addded another RCA jack for the sound. But no sound when the Atari module is plugged in). -Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
