DAT digital audio output

nihopew70 — Fri, 03 May 2019 17:13:02 GMT

I have lost the proprietary Sony POC-DA12 (Toslink) 7 pin digital output for my Sony TCD-D3 Portable DAT recorder.

I would like to replace it with something similar so I can ouput the unit to a separate DAC (an Audiolab DMAC+)

Do Sony still have these cables available? is there an adaptor that can give me a suitable optical output connector?

Hi there,

It might be best to contact Sony support here. They may be able to help.

Best wishes,

Thanks,

I will do so. If, most probably for reasons of commercial greed, Sony are going to design non-standard output sockets on their hardware, I guess they are morally obliged to make these available in perpetuity?

Let’s see...!
