Step 3Cut, strip, solder
The speaker will now be free. You will have two wires joined together and leading down to the headphone jack. To make use of the jack, I cut off the wire from the other speaker where it joined the wire I wanted to use. Then I shortened the wire I wanted to use, because there was just too much wire. I left about 4 inches of single wire.
Strip the wire. I ended up with one white-insulated wire and a bunch of copper strands. Strip about 1/2 inch insulation from the insulated wire (careful, it's delicate), and twist the copper strands together.
Solder both wires back to where they were before on the speaker (you do remember, don't you?). :-)
Now you should have a speaker with a wire leading to a headphone jack attached to it. Plug the speaker into a computer or MP3 player to make sure it works and to test the volume.
