Pump Up The Volume! – Alternative Audio for Your PC

Have you ever wondered playing your favorite audio and videos in your pc is not enough because you wanted to play it with intense volume? Well, if your conventional pc speakers don’t give you that pleasure you can plug it out and keep it in safe forever…

Bring out your existing Hi-fi audio component then hook it up using a stereo RCA cables; mostly available from your nearest electronics center around town. Once you have your stereo RCA cable; plug those RCA tips (usually Red – White or Red – Black in color) at the back of your Hi-fi stereo within the left and right audio-in or line-in section of your Hi-fi system and plug the 1/8 stereo tip at the audio-out section of your soundcard. After doing your connection pre-select your audio source selector (every Hi-Fi Stereo System has its Line In or AUX inputs on it) after doing so; you’re ready to enjoy your music much better.

Where in the world is Jim Ayson?

During the early 90’s, I was hooked up from digging some information about computers. Therefore, what I did during that time is that I had been opted to buy books and magazines from the local bookstore. Until I found a local published Philippine computer magazine known as the “PC Digest” a well-known computer magazine for most Pinoy computer aficionados.

Since then I was been a consistent follower and reader of PC Digest due to its relevant content that regularly updates me from reading every magazine issues they had in the past. PC Digest itself has several informative contents including a column from Mr. Jim Ayson called the “Ayson Chronicles” – which one of the best column that contains informative and relevant inputs regarding computers and trends that contributed a lot of information and facts during those years.

Significantly, Mr. Jim Ayson was been an I.T. icon for me because of his impressive articles that brought me became a well-informed reader in my field of my interest. The “Ayson Chronicles” was of his remarkable contribution in awakening the minds of most Filipinos including myself in the progressive world of computing and technology.

Then after PC Digest has gone off the circles in 1995, I never had the chance to follow his tracks. Fortunately, throughout the years that I had been inactive from monitoring what has been going around the Pinoy computing communities. I never thought that Mr. Jim Ayson had gone far with his career in the field of Information and Internet Technology.

From his humble beginnings, the man had proven and excelled in his field of expertise that made himself such a success. Upon searching on the net, I have found that Mr. Jim Ayson was among “The Internet’s 10 Most Influential Filipinos” which was republished by WIRED Philippines.
