griz Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Hi guys, I have an AV modded VCS that has a left and right RCA output. One for each sound channel. But I have a mono-only TV that I am using it with. Can I simply combine these two together with a common ground, or should I be using some resistors too? Please advise.

+FujiSkunk Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Common ground is fine. A simple Y-cable will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griz Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Y-cable built and working just fine. Thanks again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChildOfCv Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Just a note, the VCS already connects left and right straight out of the TIA chip anyway. So unless the AV mod includes cutting the board trace and running separate sound wires to the new sound output connections, both sound jacks are the same connection anyway, and a Y cable isn't even needed. Just hook one of them to the TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griz Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Thanks ChildOfCV. My VCS has the longhorn engineer mod and the two audio channels were separated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
