CPS2 QSound Question.

[daskrabs]

If I have a CPS2 board attached to a JAMMA harness that is connected to mono speakers, will the A-board automatically output mono only (nothing out of the RCA's), regardless of what setting is selected in the config? That is the behavior I'm seeing. I have a little $20 chinese stereo amp that I know works with my ipod, but I can't get the RCA's on the A-board to output QSound to it. I would just detach the speakers for testing, but they're tough to reach in my cab. Anyone have experience with this?

CPS-2 always outputs to the Jamma edge regardless of whether you set Q-Sound/External in the bios.

You will need to select Q-Sound/External in the bios settings to output stereo over the RCAs. It will not select automatically.

You should not connect the speakers to the RCAs and the Jamma edge at the same time.

On my boards it's "Stereo (QSound)" in the configuration. So, if that's selected, then the RCA's will output line-level stereo Qsound, right?

[Rossyra]

Correct.

What cab and game is this?

[daskrabs]

Big blue (SF2CE) w/ X-men vs SF kit installed.

Is it just my A board, or is the stereo output from the CPS2 ridiculously quiet? I have to turn my speakers up full to get decent volume out of it, I'd be deafened if I did that on any other game.

[daskrabs]

Did you adjust the volume in the config? Also, the RCA's are line level, so you need an amp if you aren't already using one.

[Hewitson]

The volume is on full, and yes, the speakers are amplified.
