I want to use it with my quadra 840av, & have been assured it would be impractical for a normal display, for the desktop etc.

But I found the manual which describes attatching the monitor via composite video display.

are composite audio cables just the same as composite video cables?

I have 4 composite inputs on the monitor as follows:-

CHROMA red
CVBS/l yellow
AUDIO-R black
AUDIO-L white

The monitor also uses a 9 pin D connector to recieve RGB signals.

What would/could I get from my Quadras composite video out port?

Now here's a laugh;

I also found an Amiga rf adapter.

This has DB 23 connector(which is supposed to plug into the Amiga) & rf out & Composite audio in, & composite video out.

The video on my Amiga(owned for a couple of months then thrown) was not good & I think this unit was a bit faulty.

Does anyone want it or can suggest a use for it or shall I throw it?

Well, if you picked up a semi-rare NuBus 9-pin video card, you could connect it to the DB-9 port on the monitor, I guess.

Have you got the pinouts for a nine pin port to check against the standard Mac DB-15 signals, coxy?

I guess I could attach the monitor to a video player & use it as a tv?

so Dana, would you advocate that I connect my quadra from the stereo video out to the commodore 1084s monitor?

Shakti, have you got the pinouts for the signals you need?

DB9 = EGA
DB15 = VGA/Mac monitor connector

As long as you KNOW its a video card!!!! (which, of course, you already do. We've been through that already. )

My monitor is currently attached to my vhs(scart to composite). It is a pleasant picture to look at.

According to Everymac.com you should have a speaker out, and a Headphone-out. The
speaker-out is 16-bit stereo, and again, if you had the right cable to split that into the 2 RCA type
connectors, you'd have audio-out which could go into the 1084 or into most stereo systems.

I like it.

Yeah email me your address, but I will send when my funds are healthier, my holiday has just taken virtually all I had.

I will post in the trading forum now.

I threw everything Amiga away, I think. I may have a memory upgrade which upgraded a 500 to 1 meg.

I'll have to have a hunt/rummage for you.

I also have commodore 64 games.
