Audio too Low on my Sega Blast city

Post by 8bitforlife » Wed Jan 02, 2019 7:13 am

ok everything is fine on my supergun because its connected to an amp

After I got t all setup i went to plug it into my cab and audio is so low. If i turn the cab up and the arpicade nob up i hear stuff but its so distorted and buzzing from both being turned up so loud.

Any ideas?

Have you adjusted the volume from the SERVICE MENU? Exit Attract-Mode... in that menu there is a volume control (software obviously)...

Yup. I also threw my cps2 multi back on to check the volume. It was nice and loud. Everything volume wise is up. I'm guessing I'm going to have to install an audio amp which sucks I didn't want a bunch of wires and extra stuff in cab.

I'm trying to find an inline 3.5 amplifier

I think jamma audio is just low on blast city and gets distorted if you try to turn cab up. I have a 3.5 to rca converter coming from amazon and I can use the stereo connector the blast has and will update. Should be here monday or tuesday. I also bought a usb sound card amp and will update if that raises volume through the hdmi. So dee2er can maybe make a sticky for candy cab people.

Yes the 3.5 to rca to the blast stereo works nice and loud.

Also found out my sound amp was dead and I had to recap it. So now my jamma audio is fine.
