Speakerlink 3 to 2

3 replies

Hi,

I have, eventually got around to using my Penta 1's. I have made the stupid mistake of using Powertlink 3 cables to the RCA converter cables.

Can I modify from Speakerlink 2 to 3? and if so, could someone please explain the connections in, " colour wire" terms! (I can use a soldering iron).

All help graciously recieved.

Sorry, I mean 3 to 2.

thanks.

I do not think that you can.  There are more wires within the Powerlink 2 than the 3 (see the technical section from where the following diagrams are taken).

Type 2

brownleft audio signal
greenright audio signal
shield: brown/greenleft/right ground
greyon/off
yellowon/off

Type 3

PowerLink cable without wire for display data
