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:-)

Iain, this is not about my word. It is about Tascam's, as cited in detail

So you're saying that Tascam is not to be trusted to know their own
equipment?

Unbelievable were it not you, Iain. :-(

Extract from the Tascam manual linked to by Amy above

"Supplied accessories snip

1/4” to 3.5mm stereo headphone adapter
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

rest of accessories snipped"


So that would be the adaptor you need to use a 3.5mm mini jack with the Tascam's
1/4" output jack then.

So that would be the adaptor you need to use a 3.5mm mini
jack with the Tascam's 1/4" output jack then.

Read the documentation cited above. The jack on the front of the Tascam
CD-RW4U CD recorder is 3.5 mm. It accepts 3.5 mm plugs. It has happily
accepted the 3.5 mm plug on my HD 280 headphones on numersous occasions for
example.

It is like I'm seeing a study for a psych article evolving before me. We've
got two nominal individuals who have by means of giving into their anxiety
and desire to contradict me, have convinced themselves that in effect black
is white.

Iain has temporarily illuded himself into thinking that 3.5 mm (per Tascam's
rather clearly written doc) is 1/4". Combs seems to be aware of the same
documentation, but has additionally illuded himself into thinking that a
"1/4" to 3.5 mm stereo headphone adaptor" fits into a 1/4" jack, when any
reasonable reading of the text means that it accepts a 1/4" plug and fits
into the previously documented 3.5 mm jack.

It's used on plenty pro gear where space is at a premium. IEM, etc.
Personal recorders used to back up radio mics. And so on.

Unfortunately, in this case Arny seems to be correct - according to
Tascam's manual online at any rate. Twice, the headphone jack is
mentioned as being 3.5mm.

This particular model is obsolete, replaced, according to Tascam
again, by the BB-1000CD. An interesting product. Only of use in a
niche application I think, but for that application, just what is
needed.

Yup. You're a pain. But, in this case, you can crow.

Only because the truth hurts people who base their lives on lies.

No crowing, just learning about how people will deny the truth to guard
their egos.
