You need some background here, Harry. I suspect our friend Jim is, in this
instance, modding toys by removing the speaker and inserting a jack. He's on
the benders list :)

I'm betting that doing that on a speak'n'spell or a Casio SK1 is not such a
big deal. Now, removing the speaker from my guitar amp on the other hand...
