I bought a bargain external speaker and mic for an iPOD. I wanted to
play a tape recorder device direct into the speaker by plugging the
speaker + mic into the 3.5mm (1/8 inch) output of a tape recorder.

It wouldn't work even when changed some of the connections after I
had checked the pinout for the four connectors on the 3.5mm plug and

When I opened up the external speaker + mic there was circuit board.
What does the circuit board do?

And why does the speaker have four connections ???

I think you've described an amplified speaker powered by the ipod.

Yep. That puppy's not gonna work without external power (5 volts, I'm
guessing?).

Does the output on the tape recorder drive a set of headphones?
