ESX Q1204 Amp Balanced Cable Connections?
After several years absence, I have decided to re-do my old car, using some
of my old gear which has been sitting in my office. I'd like to use my old ESX Q1204 amp, and this time, use the balanced inputs. I have the original balanced cables which I bought with the amp but never used. These cables use a mini-din type, 6 pin, male connector on each end of the cable.Each cable carries two channels. What headunits, if any, use this type of balanced output connections? If no headunits use this balanced connector, is there a cable adapter which will convert the balanced RCA type output found on some headunits to the mini-din type found on the ESX? Thanks for your help and suggestions! Take Care, merc teamROCS #116 |

I think I've found a source for the connectors at http://www.cablestogo.com/product.as...138&sku=01747#. I still need to find the pin-out for the ESX though so I can figure out how to make a cable. I haven't finished my research yet but the ARC Audio SRI (Signal Restoration & Integration) unit is the one I'm looking at. It uses differential circuitry (as opposed to transformer-based) to perform the conversion from unbalanced to balanced transmission line. It does, however, use RJ45 connector and CAT5 cable so it is clear that to use this unit either of us would need to construct our own interconnect cables. Let me know your thoughts please. |
