Title: Where can I get an extension cable for my Duo-R??
Post by: DaveGeorge on April 24, 2007, 09:45:08 PM

Hi guys, I was hoping you could help me out. I recently moved to a new apartment and now the couch too far away from the tv, so I figured I could use an extension cable. But my problem is; I don't know where to find one (at a reasonable price) since I live in Sweden :cry:

I found cables at http://www.midwest-games.com (http://www.midwest-games.com/) and http://www.tzd.com (http://www.tzd.com/) but it seems like the first won't ship internationally and the later having totally overprised international shipping rates ($31 for a tiny cord?!?!).

Any suggestions on other places to look?

Thanks!

The cable is an 8 pin mini din. Also used with some computer stuff.

Look at pictures here, http://www.l-com.com/multimedia/catalog_page/LC150_DIN_and_Mini_DIN_Cable_Assemblies.pdf

Much cheaper to purchase one in Sweden!

I bought one off this guy a couple months ago... it works great and it works with the tap... which is awesome...

Here's another one from the same seller:

Thanks for the tips guys... Couldn't find any at a reasonable price in Sweden so I got this one:

Works like a charm :)
