    Question Old-Type Connectors.

    Hello Everyone. I'm not sure anyone will know about this but i'll try anyway. Unfortunatly, The only amp I have in my house that can drive my home-made speakers is an old Grundig Tuner/Record/Tape player I got off someone down in my basement. Okay that's fine it works good. But. It's old and Doesn't have any RCA inputs, etc. All it has is a mic input and another identical cassette input on the back. They each have 5 different pin holes for the proper connector. I was thinking that I might be able to just stick wires in the appropriate hole and wire it up to a cd player, but I'm not sure which different hole is for. All help appreciated! Thatnks in advance.

    They are DIN connectors, an european standard.

    Adapters are available (Radio Shack?) that will allow you to use RCA connectors.

    No, I don't know what wire goes where.

    just ask of din connectors or adaptors, the wiring is standard, ins and outs all in one.
