These cans are used in with a prof CD recorder,.
I have yet to see one of those with a mini jack
output.

Then you've never seen a Tascam TASCAM CD-RW4U, just one
of several with mini jack headphone output that comes to
mind because I've used one a great deal.

The Tascam TASCAM CD-RW4U
has a _quarter-inch_ jack socket
marked "phones" as both the picture,
in the link which you provided, and the
operations manual, clearly show.

I love it when someone tries to tell me from a picture what I know from
real life.

I love it doubly when they cite the device's operations manual:

http://www.tascam.com/i-877-232-128-0-BFB3E795.pdf

which states on page 14 in the call out for item 15:
"Use a standard pair of stereo headphones, equipped with a 3.5 mm plug,
with this jack."

Now Iain, which part of the metric system converts 3.5 mm to 0.25 inch?
Is that a *special* metric system that you have in Finland? LOL!



Is the sort of smartarse remark I refer to in my other recent post - those
which Amy can dish out quick enough but can't himself get without
squealing and hollering about the *unfairness* of it all!


The technical acquisitions manager at Swedish Broadcasting
told me as follows: The mini jack is not a prof standard.
Quarter inch, 6.3mm is used for headphone outputs on
all professional CD recorders. This certainly is true of all
those I have seen and used, and am likely to use in the
forseeable future. You can see this clearly on the pics
of the Tascam.

I take his word against Arny's any day:-)
