A new toy arrived today at Jerry Towers.
A rather nice piece of vintage German gear that has these headphone output sockets that I would like to use.

I've been searching eBay and Googling to find a suitable adaptor for a modern headphone jack plug but no luck so far.
Anyone got any ideas?

Ta. :)

Thanks for that.
I came across the 2nd one for which it says "PRODUCT WITHDRAWN FROM SALE"
But didn't see that American link - $10 + shipping. Be nice to find something cheaper/closer!

PS - I see that I am in serach of an adapter. :lol:

Blank plugs from Germany, a little closer but no cheaper.

Yes, I saw those - quite a lot cheaper, I suspect - but I am pants with a soldering iron!

Thanks again! :thumbsup:

... ah, but that last link was handy. That strange DIN configuration is called domino or dice there.

Which enabled me to find this german ebay listing! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A4005-Audio-Cable-Dice-Plug-3-5mm-Jack-Connector-Socket-Cinch-Adapter-/371429111107?hash=item567ae67543:g:4j8AAOSwR0JURrw o

Over £10 postage! - what a ripoff!
But if I can't find something cheaper that will do.

... slightly different search found one in Poland - quite a bit cheaper, too! :)

OK - sorted.
Thanks for your help, Barry - I couldn't have done it without you!
