Re: K3: Problem with CM-500 plugged into frontpanel through AD1K

I do not understand the need or desire to use the front port.

I use CM-500 but plug into the rear ports.  One of the features of the really like about the K3 is the clean look with nothing plugged into the front.

I converted an old hand mike into a K3 pinout so i could use it if i ever wanted to use a hand mike.  so far other than when i tested it the connector has been vacant.

Problem with CM-500 plugged into frontpanel through AD1K

Johnny Siu
The rear sockets are slightly weak in terms of mechanical strength and I need to replace them.  As a result, using front port could be a good alternative in long term.

Just a personal preference.
