![]() Cover the soldered area with a piece of tape and run the cable along the side of the board:.Then solder the wires exact as you see here: Strip your wire (or the headphone extension cable) and make sure you leave it long enough so there’s plenty of room to run the cable out the back of the Genesis.This is to make sure the wires you’re about to solder won’t interfere with any exposed pins: ![]() Put some non-conductive tape on the area above the chip, exactly as shown here.Notice the location of the “473” and make sure yours lines up the same way (the actual number 473 may be upside down on your Genesis…I mean it’s physical location on the board). Flip the genesis motherboard over and find the bottom part of that chip.If the Sony chip is there, you can proceed: I suggest checking out this page to find a different way to improve the sound of your Genesis. If the chip isn’t there, you have a rare version of the model 1 Genesis that has a different motherboard revision and you won’t be able to do this mod. Take the Genesis motherboard out and locate this chip.Honestly though, there’s much less chance of damage if you just cut the wire and add some cheap connectors (these pictures show butt connectors): You can try to leave it connected, or try to remove the LED and then re-glue it afterwards. ![]() Personally, I prefer to cut the LED cable in the middle and add butt connectors or jumper connectors, but it’s up to you.
