Rzzzzz!
I will try to nutshell this as best as I can. I have a stereo output that I need to send into a mono input. I am looking to sum the stereo channels into the mono device without losing anything to phase cancelation and without damaging the output of the stereo device.
I have come across DIY instructions for adding a pair of resistors to a stereo 3.5mm output into a quarter inch mono input cable to supposedly achieve this effect. I'm not an expert in electronics but I don't see how adding resistance to the signal in both channels will prevent phase cancelation. (I can see how it will change the impedance to prevent the shorting damage from combining the two signals, but I need to have both).
Anyone know how to accomplish what I am trying to do? Please keep the solution passive if at all possible. I don't mind doing a little ham handed soldering to get er done.
