Danny,

Do you have one of the small mixers for recording?

Consider using it as a stereo preamp between the headphone out of the laptop and the input to the PA.

Of course, you should use two of the Line inputs on the mixer and not the Mic inputs.

That would give you at least two extra stages of gain to boost the sig into the PA and you likely already have a mini mixer, or can pick one up for little cash outlay.

You'll get the separate channel gain faders as well as the master fader, plus you will likely also have some physical EQ shelving as well.

When he said he plugs it into the PA I would hope he'd know that it has to go into some sort of mixer first. Not likely enough gain to drive just a power amp.He should either be using a mixer and amp or one of the box-top units. Either way there's something wrong if he can't drive the front end of a mixer or box-top with the output from the headphone jack. My Lenovo is no different then my old Toshiba in that respect.
Danny, you never answered my question about using the RED keys to up the volume.



I said that already right here.
