  1. Thanks for this information! I stupidly let my subwoofer fall off the bottom shelf of my desk and that ripped the metal shielding on the mini-DIN away from the cable. I googled for a replacement but Klispch seems to be out of stock. Then I stumbled upon your post and it saved the day. I was able to go down to my local Fry's and by a PS/2 extension cable. I cut the female connector off of the cable and stripped/prepped all the wires on the cable. A little time with a continuity checker allowed me to figure out what wires on my particular cable went to what pins on the male connector. I actually had the crimp on pins for the white connector in the control pod from another project. After an hour of crimping tiny pins and getting serious eye-strain I had 7 conductors ready to be plugged into the old white connector housing. I put everything back together and powered up. It worked! I thought I'd give back so I'm posting a picture of a pinout I drew using the data from your original post: Also I'd like to let people know that they can buy the crimp connectors for the wires from Digi-Key. The part numbers for these and the 9-pin housing are: 455-1127-1-ND 455-1159-ND Thanks again, and I hope this post helps anyone else who breaks their mini-DIN connector.
