Asked someone if they could get famicom expansion audio out of my NES & Got this response. How should I proceed?

>So the expansion audio is not as straight forward as I would like. The easiest way is to just plug in an Enio adapter into the NES expansion port and you're done. An alternative to the Enio adapter is to solder a resistor between pins 3 and 9 on the NES expansion port. Unfortunately neither of these will not work if you're pulling audio from the NESRGB board. With the NESRGB board you have the option of tapping the NES's audio and having it go through the NESRGB's audio mixer which most people say sounds better. I think you can still get expansion audio from your NES by not having the audio go through the NESRGB's mixer and instead just using the NES's audio jack (along with the expansion connector resistor mod of course). The mods also seem to vary depending on what type of cart you'll be using; an Everdrive or famicom to NES adapter. If you're using a famicom to NES adapter then the adapter needs to be modded with resistors as well. The other problem with this is supposedly this expansion audio mod will work for games that have expansion audio but for games that do not have expansion audio there will be a constant buzzing noise.
