Aha.  This is what I was aiming for.  I've a fairly quiet drive.  Can
you remember how you went about accessing the signal from the IDE cable?

I have inspected and found the appropriate CD analogue audio connector
on the motherboard.  I'll go and fetch myself a cable for this.

I'm going to start a new thread on SPDIF as I'm about to digress from

Thanks Hartmut, Daniel, Steve, Nick for your advice.
