I am curious about PC's that have AUDIO
[Line_IN, MIC-IN, SPK_out and LINE_OUT] connectors on both the front
panel and on the rear panel of PC case.
The question really concerns if the motherboard [mobo] or sound card
feeding the AUDIO Connectors will allow both front/rear to be active at
the same time?
A specific example:
Suppose I wanted to listen on headphones plugged into
front panel SPKR or LINE_OUT, would the Stereo Speakers plugged into the
rear panel LINE_OUT jack also be active while front headphones are working?
My new PC, about to be built, uses an INTEL D865PERLK mobo.
This mobo specifically says the rear AUDIO connectors are DISABLED
when built-in AUDIO is jumper selected to drive FRONT AUDIO.
Are other mobos implemented differently so both front and rear audio
work at the same time? If not at same time, how do you change from REAR
to FRONT? Must the PC case be opened and jumpers changed on mobo?
Thanks for info about this AUDIO question.
