The Quad 33 preamplifier uses 5-pin DIN jacks for audio inputs and a 4-pin DIN jack for the preamplifier audio output. To connect a 5-pin DIN plug to a stereo jack for the QUAD 33-303 system, the typical wiring follows:
- Pin 1: Left channel signal - Pin 2: Ground - Pin 3: Right channel signal
For a stereo jack connection: - Tip → Left channel (Pin 1 from DIN) - Ring → Right channel (Pin 3 from DIN) - Sleeve → Ground (Pin 2 from DIN)
This setup ensures proper stereo audio transmission between the Quad 33 and the connected device.
