      Hey Marqs,

      Firstly, love your product! I managed to get everything installed and put together. Did a test and video was awesome… but there was no sound. Re-read your instructions and saw that I had to bridge J3, J5, and J6. At this point I’m having a hard time getting the solder to bridge and I end up lifting all the pads on the left side.

      I looked at the schematics/blue prints and only saw the bridged pads as the only places were BCKI/BCKO, LRCKI/LRCKO, and SDIN/SDOUT exist.

      Any hope in fixing this Marqs?

        Used a magnifying glass and tested some pads nearby and found the three pads I needed! It’s not pretty, BUT IT WORKS.

          Yeah, that should do the job. It should be easy to bridge those SMD jumpers if you first add a blob of solder on both pads, and then heat both together (without using too high temperature) while adding more solder in between.
