Rear Panel
The rear panel of the ALK-2 features three ports. Each port consists of an 1/8” stereo jack
wired in parallel with two RCA jacks. Each RCA jack connects to one of the two circuits in the 1/8”
stereo jack. When using a mix of 1/8” stereo plugs and RCA plugs, the ALK-2’s RCA jacks follow
the industry standard convention for color coding. The red jacks connect to the 1/8” jack’s right
audio channel, and the white RCA jacks connect to the 1/8” jack’s left audio channel.
One port is a common port, and the other two are the switched ports. The front panel
pushbutton alternately connects either Port 1 or Port 2 to the Common Port. The DC power jack
accepts 12 volts DC at 100 mA, center positive.
Pinouts
For each of the three ports, Port 1, Port 2, and Common, the RCA jack pinout is as follows:
