ACA mono only wiring

[Dr.Long]

Hello all, I am new to the ACA diy community. I have just completed my 1st of two aca kits and it works!

Can someone please point me in the right direction so as I can wire these in only mono XLR configuration.

I don't use rca so have no need for the rca or the selector switch.

Thank everyone and especially 6l6 for the great instructions.

Do you mean that you wish to operate two channels as one balanced channel?

Honored of course. Yes, that is exactly what I mean.

Thank you.

Thank you. Looks like I have some research.

take normal stereo ACA

do not mount any of bridging frills and whistles

if you want, mount RCA connectors, wired in usual way

but, mount also XLR on back plate

connect R RCA hot to XLR pin 2

connect L RCA hot to XLR pin 3

connect one RCA GND to XLR pin 1

feed it with balanced signal, connect speaker + to R hot output, speaker - to L hot output ....... and that's it

Spoonfeeding is always appreciated.

Thank you.
