Default Terminating stereo coax into 3.5mm

Get a standard 3.5 mm stereo to dual RCA plug adaptor, and cut off
the RCAs and splice to the stubs.

Sounds like a good idea, but not sure if an adapter will fit at the
back, the soundcard sockets are pretty close. I'll look into it.



I think he means a cable. The standard computer audio cable - 3.5 mm
stereo jack to two phono plugs. Either splice into it, or get a
couple of back-to-back phono connectors and extend with a normal phono
lead.


Right on!


Cheers. I'll pick up some couplers from maplin, to use with my old 1m lead.
Don't know why I didn't think of that.
