DIN cable
 

Hey Folks.

I got a Kenwood receiver that will operate two tape decks. However, Tape "B"
is DIN cable only. Is there such a cable that will go from DIN to four RCA
record/play male terminals?. I would like to use Tape B for a CD player/burner.
When I use Y-cables to share a Tape and CD unit, the volume is decreased
significantly. The amp does have enough power to drive them louder though.

I do have a "control center" from Rat Shack that will handle three decks, but I
don't wanna give it up. I could also go into the amp and hard-wire some cables
to that DIN connection.

Any suggestions wouldl be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Yes..an electronics store that was closing down last week trashed a bunch
of them...perhaps they ended up at the local Goodwill store.

BTW, did you google? (din rca stereo patch cord)

If you did, you would have seen:

They used to be a bog standard item. Try R P Electronics in Burnaby BC.

Beware, if you are using output on a DIN to feed a phono input (like
tape out to amp in) levels should be OK - all around 100mV.

However if the DIN plug is to the correct levels for DIN standard on
its input, it will be expecting around 1mV of signal, where your amp
will be supplying around 100-150mV, so it will need attenuation.
