How do I play back a recording on a digital voice recorder without headphones?

This guide will walk you through playing back a recording from one of the Information Commons voice recorders using a computer and a set of headphones from the Information Commons.  However, if you really want to use a set of headphones with the voice recorders and not on the computer, you can go to the library and the headphones they use there will plug into the voice recorders.
