RCA Connections to Amp (Jumpers) ?

I BOUGHT A USED MARK LEVINSON NO. 336 AMP. I DO NOT HAVE BALANCED CONNECTORS AND MY AMP ONLY HAS RCA OUTPUTS. THE MANUAL TALKS ABOUT REPLACING PINS AT THE BALANCED CONNECTORS ON AMP, BUT AT THIS TIME IT DID NOT COME WITH ANY. ALSO IT TALKS ABOUT JUMPS WHICH I ALSO DO NOT HAVE AT THIS TIME. IS THERE ANYWAY TO HOOK THIS SYSTEM UP SO WITH RCA INTERCONNECTS WITHOUT THE PINS OR JUMPERS AND/OR IS THERE A WAY TO MAKE THESE CONNECTIONS AND WHAT DO THEY MEAN ABOUT JUMPERS, HOW ARE THEY HOOKED UP? MY OLD AMP ONLY HAD RCA CONNECTIONS.

SORRY, CAN'T RESPOND. POST TOO HARD TO READ WITH ALL OF THOSE BIG LETTERS. DO YOU ALWAYS SHOUT WHEN TALKING?

Purist Audio Design in Clute, Texas can make about any kind of adaptor you want. Top quality, not cheap. Suggest you try them.

A, I agree with a post in caps.
B,and more importantly; does using some type of device such as adaptors/jumpers affect the sound? I was interested in a Gamout 200 but passed, because of the bal. only connection.

Adaptors can affect the sound. That's why they have to be top quality to minimize any bad effects. Purist is known for making the best, which is why I suggested them.
