Title: Rockola 460 line input
Post by: lespaul69 on December 07, 2017, 07:46:08 pm

I have a Rockola 460 jukebox. there is a 4 wire microphone accessory input. Has anyone wire a stereo line input into this connection? I'm going to meter test the connection but I'd love to know if anyone has done this and what their result was. Thanks for the input..

The microphone accessory plug has a ground, mono microphone signal and a squelch trigger, and power. The mic signal is low impedance and low level. You might get satisfactory results by tieing into the volume control plug. It higher levels and is stereo. You didn't mention if you were going to use the tonearm in the Rock-Ola and the line input together.
