Use mono jack at the two ends of the wire.
don't use loo long wires because when wires are too long there is no sound.

Hi friend,

u have wrong with stereo and mono.

mono means single audio line. but both of ur radio and pc have stereo jacks.

i think ur sound card has 4audio oupputs or u think both of line in and out are outs.

try with ur last pic's cable by connecting to one by one sound card's ports.

Regards.

First I moved topic to this area. There nothing related to mechanical engineering on this topic. :?:

Secondly, our members have given lots of answers so I don't think I'll have to comment on this. However I'll put up the cable description that might help you.

TRS Jack

  1. Sleeve: usually ground
  2. Ring: Right-hand channel for stereo signals, negative phase for balanced mono signals, power supply for power-requiring mono signal sources
  3. Tip: Left-hand channel for stereo signals, positive phase for balanced mono signals, signal line for unbalanced mono signals
  4. Insulating rings
RCA Jack

Make sure you use shielded copper cable to reduce attenuation.

This is the question I am asking from you.Because of my English knowledge ;) you couldn't get my problem.
I was asking how can I connect those cables.Now I got it.I got a advantage from my mistake.I learn about the deferance between mono & stereo(I got my wrong idea corrected from that mistake.That was a blessing to me.)

Any way I am quit happy about Expertcore.Because I have less knowledge about these kind of things.But you pay good attention to my stupid questions also... :lol:

@ NEO.Sorry about the topic posting place.... ;)

@ RKSK that your post was realy help full
