Can anyone tell me the size RCA jacks plugs we need for the MPC 1000 to play through a stereo.

Thanks

you need a mixer with those red an white jacks

There are not different sizes of rca cables, there are simply "rca cables". You DO NOT need a mixer to play through your stereo, you need a cable that has 1/4 inch trs plugs on one end, and rca plugs on the other end.

All you need is a regular rca cabel with both the red and white rca connectors on each in and plug it into the auxillary in on your stereo. Most modern stereos have at least one aulliary input

No you're wrong, jb502 is right.

The MPC stereo outs are 1/4" trs jacks so you need these ont the MPC side and RCAs on the stereo side

I don't think the MPC1000 outputs are trs, I think it's just standard unbalanced ts.

( TRS = Tip, Ring, Shaft = balanced
TS = Tip, Shaft = unbalanced )

yes, you're correct. The only balanced connections on the mpc100 are the 1/4" jack inputs, all the rest are unbalanced except the digital connections which are, well, digital! :lol:
