Two-in-the-Belfry Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Why are there only two RCA jacks? Shouldn't there also be a white one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampFox56 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Why are there only two RCA jacks? Shouldn't there also be a white one? Most standard 2600 A/V mods use only mono output. Back when mono was common - you'd only have one plug because there was only one channel. Bradd1978 probably just prefers it that way. Which is totally fine if you think about it. Even though I only wire Mono audio to Atari 2600's (unless a customer requests that I do the True Stereo mod), I wire two A/V jacks in series. Because on most TV's, if you only have one wire plugged in - you only get audio from one speaker (if it's a stereo tv). if you wanted dual mono (exactly the same as what having two jacks wired in series would be like) - just buy an RCA splitter. Anyways, nice mod Very clean and professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiitsbrian Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Does the composite replace the original RF type output, or is that still an option?Also, does console only include the hookups or any controllers? Or just the bare system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradd1978 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 Why are there only two RCA jacks? Shouldn't there also be a white one? The Atari only outputs mono audio. You can create dual mono with a second RCA jack. To be honest I actually didn't have any white jacks on hand when I modded this system. Like Swampfox said, use a splitter and you'll achieve a dual mono "stereo" effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
