- The Quadra 900 and 950 (but not the 700) have sterio rca input jacks. In
- order to use these, one must open the Sound controll panel, select
- "built-in" sound, click on "Options", and then select "External audio".
- This will provide a far superior sound to that obtained via the microphone
- port, and I have found the results when using the built-in audio to be much
- better then when using the audio capabilities of the Radius Video Vision
- Card.
