High Garry, That's exactly what I remember too. I tried that once, and found that it didn't work to well. But 20 years ago, this was in a stereo that used a power amp for a car stereo system. It required about 7.2 ampyears of currant and about 18 volts to power it. Witch came from 10 D batteries. When I tried to use those adappters, it cooked them. That only happened because there wasn't enough voltage and or currant. This portable stereo that I have, is about 15 years old. It will cook those adappters too especially wen you atempt to play a CD on this old thing. The only reason that I'm still hanging on to it, because it still works. John Price.
