I just bought 1/8" miniplug connector from RadioShack but it seems like the amp using RCA connectors. Should I use this 1/8" mini to RCA? Or what kinda connectors using on the amp side? B&K manual saying 3.5mm but doesn't looks like it.

    No trigger on B&K Ref30. Searched entire manual. Radio shack does sell an ac to 1/8" 6v that will work. You plus the a/c into the 30 then plug the 1/8" into 5215. 5125 need trigger voltage of 5v to 24v. This should work for you.

    I love how music can brighten up a bad day.

    The problem was I couldn't plug in 1/8" into 5125. I just went and get that RadioShack 1/8" to RCA and it works now. Thanks.

    B&K used RCA jacks for triggering back then, for some unknown reason.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
