Thanks for the fast response!  I have some follow up questions.

1. Er.. How do you hop up the A/D to 250kHz?  Do you set the ADPS 
bits of ADCSRA?  I'm using the internal clock.  Is that a big no-no?

2. "pull the A/D input to VCC/2" Sorry, my electronics language 
skills are terrible.  Do you mean run a pull up resistor (around 10k) 
between VCC/2 and the A/D input pin?  I just happen to have a VCC/2 
source on my board already that I use for the reference voltage on 
the D/A converter.

3. How does one AC Couple the audio?  Do you have any links to 
schematics for that?  My pathetic little electronics books don't 
cover that subject. :-(

A million thanks!
