Recommended Posts

I've been doing some Google searching and also on diyaudio but I can't seem to find a nice answer to which pins are connected to what on Quad 5-pin and 4-pin DIN interconnects. Anyone here know?

-think ive got it now-

I found [ame=http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conector_DIN]this[/ame] on the Spanish Wiki for the 5 pins DIN, which meets my previous experience with those connectors. Many moons ago I also had a microphone using a 3 pins connector into a recording machine.

I'll translate the numbers assignation:

3 Left channel "out" (I suppose it means -) / Mono

5 Right channel "out" (stereo use only)

2 Ground

4 Right channel "in" (I suppose it means +) (just used in stereo)

1 Left channel "in" / Mono

My wild guess is that the 4 pins connection in stereo just skips the ground pole. I didn't found information about it.

I suppose that Quad sticks to the normal DIN configuration. Maybe contacting them to confirm the point is your best bet. Good luck.
