Hey,
I'm going to get the digi mod sooner or later, but for right now I'm going to have to go 1/4 out of the UA-5 in to the M1. Do they make 1/4 right angle that would then plug in to the M1. Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Mark

i think you'd need to get, or make a cable, if you want both right angles, that wouldn't be too tough. I just made some right angle speaker cables with 1/4 right angles. Its easy, you could probably get them at either radio shack, or go to a guitar store, but you could use a cat5 cable, and solder the tip/ground on the 1/4 in peices, and have that terminate into an 1/8 in stereo mini plug. i don't know how tough the mini plug would be to solder, but if all else fails get an old pair of headphones and hack the end off and use the existing wire in that. Good luck man, and welcome to ts.com.

mark;
i'd be happy to make some custom cables to suit your needs. i've made custom cables for several folks here and nothing's blown up yet....so that's good news so far :)
i mainly use quality cables and terminators like Canare, Mogami, Belden, Neutrik, etc.
pm me if you're interested.

Marc's cables are sweet, he made me some 1/4" > rca and 1/4" > 1/8" mini cables so i can take patchers with my 410! super sweet cables!

Why not just run RCAs out of the UA5 into the M1? You can pick up a 2 x RCA > stereo mini adapter easily and cheaply enough at RS. Of course, you could make either or both ends of the RCA/stereo mini right-angle as well.

ditto - they are the same output - both unbalanced so it's really just a choice of connectors. And RCAs are usually so short you don't need to bother with right angles because there's usually something else sticking out more!
