help with din to rca cable for creek amp?


I recently purchased a Creek audio systems cas 4040 amp. My source is amc cd8b cd player. The cd player has rca outs, the amp (which doesn't have a cd player input) has an aux input, which is 5-pin din. I can't find a cable to connect the two that works! I bought one (brand: Neutrik) cable that the seller said was for b&o equipment, and thinking that as the creek is european design, it might work...but no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Ben

I think Naim gear uses 5 pin din plugs. You could check to see if a Naim dealer has any cables in stock with RCA on one end.

I have a like-new set of inexpensive cables that are 5 pin din and RCA. They are for a tape deck (4 RCA plugs). The two RCA plugs that are for the input would work with anything I would guess. If you want to try them or if you'd like to try connecting a tape deck to your Creek, send me $10 and I'll ship them to you.

Do you have the manual for the Creek? Usually those manuals have the configuration of the pins (what is wire to what pin). If not, ask Creek if they have the layout of the 5 pins of the Din plug, so you can have cables made correctly if you need to. The pin configuration on the above post is probably correct.
