| IT Tools Pty Ltd | Hi, Can I help? |
| Vasi | Hi. I’m looking for a replacement speaker input jack for an Asus M51V. | |
| Huss | Hi, You mean Audio jack? | |
| Vasi | I think so… the thing you stick your headphone speaker into to listen through headphones | |
| Huss | yep | |
| Checking this for you, won’t be long. | |
| that is part of the motherboard | |
| Vasi | I think it may be an audio/microphone input jack unit on this model??? | |
| Huss | better use a USB Audio card | |
| Vasi | Yep. I think it needs to be soldered in. | |
| How does the USB Audio card work? | |
| Huss | plug it in the USB port, and plug the audio jack in the card (looks like a USB stick) | |
| Vasi | wow! how much? | |
| does it cost..? | |
| Huss | let me check | |
| $30 + $16.5 freight | |
| Vasi | would it work with a linux system? | |
| Huss | yep | |
| Vasi | ok…well that sounds like a simpler option..Thanks for your help! I can’t buy it today, but will be back on payday. Thanks for yourtime. | |
| Actually, can you also give me a price for the Asus M51V Replacement laptop Speaker Set 87071 on this website, please? | |

| Huss | let me check if available | |
| $75 ETA 3-4 weeks | |
| Vasi | That is pretty pricey. Probably time to get a new computer 🙁 I’ll let you get back to someone more generous.. Thankyou. |
