mono to stereo and vice versa
Hi,
I hope this is not off topic. I see CPC (and I'm sure others) sell adaptors that convert mono plugs to stereo ones or vice versa. Something like this: http://cpc.farnell.com/pro-signal/ps...-st/dp/AV17274 I realise that in addition to the stereo to mono conversion, this particular example is also converting sizes but as far as the electrical side of things goes, does the adaptor simply short the left and right channels together? Wouldn't plugging a mono plug into a stereo socket achieve exactly the same thing without an adaptor (assuming the plug and socket were the same size)? I presume these adaptors are more useful when plugging a stereo plug into a mono socket, which otherwise might only receive one channel? TIA |
