Re: Not a solution Does anyone remember the first home modems!! THe ones from the early 1980's like the one shown in the movie war games. I mean if those worked well enough for computer why couldn't one be hooked up for headphones!!! just a thought |

| The audio signal from a CD player and the data signal from a modem are two totally different animals. Have you heard a modem work? Lots of static noises to us, but very coherent communication for the modem. It would be just the reverse. CD audio sounds all fine and dandy, but the modem would only hear it as garbage. Even if you get one of those old old modems that could hear the signal there is no way to receive that info well enough. Besides it's all a moot point anyway as you won't be seeing any of these glued up players offered to the public.

Because
A modem takes a analog signal and converts it to digital.
Thats a great idea, but the sound that comes from the headphones is an analog signal only, and it pretty much sucks. Cable to cable, or usb outs is pretty much what people would want to go with.
