I don't know what anyone is talking about on here.... I had non-hi def model 1 no ext port when I bought the 32x new the chritmas it came out and audio came out of it fine be it mono with the standard cable that came with it... now I have a TMSS hidef model 1 and a stereo a/v cable connected straight to the 32x no headphone jack and sound works too be still in mono. Unless I'm not understanding everyone else cause it sounded like you all said ALL sound gets cut off as soon as the 32x gets plugged in which is not the case at all unless it has something to to with the revision of the genesis and not that it's a model 1 at all.
