- Yes you can listen to CDs thru NeXT speaker. You have to get a cable to connect
- the output of CD-ROM drive to NeXT microphone input at the back of the
- monitor. Then run CDPlayer (or CDAudio) and play the CD. Immediately after that
- type in the Terminal:
- record|play
- You can get the record and play commands from Gopher source on nova.cc.purdue.edu

- P.S. You lose some quality of the sound though... Therefore I prefer headphones.
