I need help


I have, since 1975, an integrated amplifier by Sansui model AU 7700.

It had what I think were jumpers connected to the right and left entry RCA connectors of Phono 2 that I suppose were, in the absence of the Phono 2, to simulate it.

I also suppose that the jumpers have an specific impedance.
I recently send it to maintenance and the technician lost these jumpers.

If anyone is familiar with this equipment, and what I am calling jumpers, could you please check if I am right about my idea of their function and, if so, which is their  impedance so that I can manufacture a replacement?

Thank you very much for any information.

I assume that they are simple "shorting plugs" if used in a phono input.

They may lower noise a bit depending on the environment.

PS:  DO NOT use a "shorting plug" in an output.

@dekay is absolutely correct!. Never! use shorting pins on an output!

Looked at image of your piece.  Far left are 2 phonos.  So those would be shorting pins.  Far right are preamp out/power in needing RCA interconnect.  Hope that helps.

The jumpers go from the pre out to the main in and are not necessary for operation. They are there in case you want to use a separate amp or a separate preamp.
