Would this work with a Eumig Stereo Projector to input music for recording? [Confused]

Din Adapter Plug

Impossible to tell.
The DIN system plugs (and sockets) with 5 pins spaced over 180 degrees have standard connections.... the centre pin is "ground", the two pins to one side of ground are "left/right" channel INPUTS and the two on the other side of ground are "left/right" channel OUTPUTS.
The Description of the linked cable does not identify the connections, they could be stereo INPUTS or stereo OUTPUTS, or even a MONO INPUT and a MONO OUTPUT!
As long as the Eumig machine you have is capable of accepting inputs through the DIN socket (and providing outputs as well) you need a lead that has the matching (there is another 5 pin configuration)5 pin DIN plug on one end and 4 Phono plugs (or sockets) on the other. You can use such a lead for ANY purpose.

For example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5 -PIN-MIDI-DIN-PLUG-4-RCA-PHONO-MALE-PLUGS-CABLE-5M-/360314396919?pt=UK_Computing_CablesConnectors_RL&hash=item53e46960f7

Radio Shack in the USA should be able to help BUT check the plug pin configuration before buying).

My Eumig 926 stereo had these plugs as well! They work fine!

Martin,
I think I will simply order the cable you linked to. I found nothing comparable on the Radio Shack website. The workers at Radio Shack nowadays are not very knowledgeable either. Its annoying that Eumig didn't include cables with their projectors. Thanks for your help! [Smile]

Pleased to be of help! When the lead arrives it may have identifying sleeves on the individual ends.
If not, this will help...

Radio Shack is pretty useless fot DIN connectors.

-If you want a cell phone or a radio rontrolled puppy, it's your place though!

Haha!

Your right, Radio Shack used to be "thee" tech place, but it's very little good.

I highly suggest checking out ebay for those connectors, you'll probably have better luck.
