5 Pin DIN > Stereo RCA

kclives · 20th June 2011, 10:06 PM

Hi,

Just a quick query, I'm trying to wire a stereo RCA connection from my PC into an old Amplifier that uses a 5 PIN DIN socket on the Aux-In.

I followed this diagram:

Basically combining the RCA grounds to the middle DIN pin and pairing the Left and Right RCA channels to the pins either side of the middle DIN pin, leaving the bottom two DIN pins unused.

Is this wiring correct as I can't test the cable until I have sealed up the DIN socket, so I wanted to be sure. Thanks.

Pins 3 and 5 are the signal in on an AMP 3-left,5-right.
the one you picked is maybe a mic pinout - phantom power? Someone will know what that is.

Most din inputs are quite low level @ 100mv or so for full output so turn down the output of the sound card

This looks correct
