    Anyone know what this is?



    Or how to plug into it?? I have to spin at a store tomorrow and when I went to go check out the connection to the house speakers that's what I found. I spun at a different location before and they had standard RCA inputs. Nobody at the store has a clue what kind of adapter I need, but I need the master out from my mixer to somehow connect with that. I figured maybe it unscrewed so I could strip an RCA cord and just thread the wires into it, but it doesn't unscrew. I took this picture (I know it's a bad picture) to Guitar Center and nobody there had a clue what to do. I can take my own speakers but ultimately I (and I'm sure the store) would be happier plugging into their P.A.

    While that is funny, it doesn't really help me

    Matt, you should post this in the dj/producer forum - might get an answer (or a lead, at least) there.

    I have no idea, that connection is on the wall on the other side of the store just like an electrical outlet. I can't plug directly into the amp because it's behind the counter and they don't want me running a cord all the way through the store.

    Those look like rca female ends with some kind of cover/protector plugged in connector. I used to play at this hookah lounge down at Virginia Tech and I plugged my mixer into a wall jack with rca ends.

    So you think I should take some pliers or a small wrench and just see what's behind it?

    i have a feeling those caps are just some kind of protector, that can be removed, for the female connector.

    Werd, thanks man I'll definitely be relieved if I can pop those off and plug the RCA in. Carrying my speakers from the garage to the store would be a rather large pain in the ass

    from a dj mixer standpoint, the output can only be 1/4", XLR, or rca.

    those ends definitely aren't xlr connections and 1/4" female jacks don't stick out like that, so they have to be rca.
