This flex amp for the Game Boy Advance enhances the audio and also addresses issues with other flex amps that are too loud and don't have adjustability. 

FEATURES:

  • Please purchase your speaker separately (2W)
  • Variable volume pot labelled "TRIM". This will adjust the peak volume of the amp. Set this during install with a small flat head screwdriver.
  • Preinstalled additional capacitators to reduce speaker hum.
  • If using an original speaker, there will be slight distortion at the maximum volume and the tabs on the back of the speaker may need to be trimmed

INCLUDED:

  • 1x GBA Audio Flex amp

INSTALLATION:

  • Remove the old speaker and trim off the old solder connections so they are flat with a pair of side cutters.
  • Pre-tin the GBA motherboard (see photo showing locations).
  • Solder on the flex amp at the four locations (see photo). I suggest to use a small amount of liquid flux to help neaten to joints and allow the solder to flow.
  • Solder on the speaker.
  • Using a small 2mm flat blade screwdriver (iFix part "2"), set the volume pot to the required peak level.

NOTES:

  • This amp has a 'silence' mod installed. Which means that, when the volume wheel is closer to the off position, the volume will become completely silent. This helps to reduce the humming/hissing noises that can be heard when an amp is installed. However, please expect a less gradual increase of volume from off to receiving sound, it will start off at a higher-level volume than a quiet one.

Really works

The amp is excellent at boosting the sound quality of the original poor experience. Everything is crisp and pronounced once this mod is added.

Very easy to install. Nice upgrade.

Great amp for the console. Made the mistake of not buying a new speaker, but the old one works fine. Couple things I would point out. Wish they had instructions on the pot adjustment for the amp. Turn the pot LEFT will make it louder while turning it RIGHT will make it quieter. Also, had to file down the original speaker like they mention in the description or else the motherboard won't sit flush.
