Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Toslink connection
How to post a pic . When you write a reply using a web browser (there are other ways to read the forum ) , you see the "Manage Attachments" button . Press that and choose your picture via the browse button , press upload, it works if its in a supported format like jpeg and if its not to big ,done . If it's sold as "new" or in good condition ,you should contact the seller if he has vandalised the product , exceptionally few modders know what they are doing , John Svensson may be one of them :) Most have simply got one of the snake oil modders that are online to do it or put in random stuff they read about on the internet all by themselves . It may perform "differently" Here is an BNC connector btw . +---+ |Filename: bnc.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=15143| +---+ Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

The Touch has never had anything other than a standard TOSLINK jack. We really need to see a picture of what you have, nobody here has any clue what it is you have there. The only thing that makes sense is that it is some form of adapter. Did you get this Touch used from someone that might have modified it? The toslink hole in the case is a favorite spot for people that are modifying the Touch to add things like a BNC jack. This might be what you have. John S.

Nope, neither of those will fit in the support--diameter of the connector is too large. I'll try to figure out how to post a pic.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Toslink connection
I bought both of mine new and they both have the support. I tried pulling it out with no luck. It seems to be a support for a very skinny Toslink cable. I don't know what else it could be. kswanson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=45445 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99635 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Sounds like a blanking plug or adaptor to me, won't it just pull out? kidstypike 1xSB3 - 1xBoom - 1x(Squeezebox) Radio - 2xTouch kidstypike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99635 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
