MM/1 Sound cable
From: NIMITZ To: ALL
I’m looking for someone who can tell me how the MM/1 5pin DIN to RCA
sound cable is wired. Does the ground pin have to be connected to
each sound wire? Where can the prewired ones be purchased?
Thanks!

The cable is wired thussly:
5 pin din MM1 stereo sound connector as seen looking at the back panel
of the MM1
3 o 1 o
5 o 4 o
2 o
1 – Right Channel Input
2 – Ground
3 – Left Channel Input
4 – Right Channel Output
5 – Left Channel Output
I was told several times that Rat Shack sold these cables, but by the time
I went to one and asked (at least a year ago), that particular stock number
had been retired.

Chris Hawks (HAWKSOFT) hand a number of these cables at one time and
was selling them at a good price… I Don’t know who his supplier was
though. I have seen them at other electronics stores, listed as European
to RCA sterio cables…

David,
I see you got lots of replies and a diagram for the DIN stereo
plug. I didn’t see an answer to the other question — YES,
the ground goes to the outer (shell) terminal on EACH RCA-type
plug. I had a couple of those adaptors once — came with a
stereo system I bought while stationed in Berlin. Think I
can find them now? (Fat chance).

No prob. btw, on my MM/1a, I made my own 5pin DIN to two sets of RCA phono
jacks which I mounted in a blank back plate which I had drilled four
holes in.

Some “stereo” stores carry this cable. I got mine that way (sorry Radio
Shaft)

I plan to mount RCA jacks on the back panel of all new MM/1′s after I get
the new boards. Called to order boards last week and the company had ‘lost’
my file and the quote was ‘for double sided boards not 4 layerr boards’. So
this may take awhile longer yet

Hi David!
I got my sound cables from a TV repair supply house. It is a standard
part for connecting European audio equipment to US equipment. Manufactured
(or packaged anway) by GC Electronics. If you don’t see ‘em at your local
TV repair shop ask to see the GC Electonics catalog.

Thanks Chris. I need all the pointers I can get. Say, can I get your catalog
in electronic form? Same goes for all vendors out there! I need to get a
sourcebook going!
