Right

Yes it is. They are similar to the leads that come with CD drives bought for
Amiga (eg Power models), except that it would need to be reversed for your use.
Essentially, (and I'm assuming) you want a set of leads that provides 2 pairs
of female RCA sockets of 1 pair of male RCA sockets. Most decent Hi-Fi dealers
should be able to let you have one, for anything from £3 - £4 upwards (depending
on quality, if you want gold connectors etc. (CD - Amiga connectors are 2x2 male
- 1x2 female)
Failing that, they are a doddle to make. Just get the sockets and some wire, and
cobble it together. You'll be able to figure it out once you've got the bits.
All the best
Steve
