I believe I have found a source for the audio cables for the NEC
8201/8300. The pinout for the old MSX machines is very similar to the
NEC and I noticed a seller on eBay from the UK selling MSX cables along
with some that I believe work with the 100 & 200. I contacted him about
the pinout and there was only one pin that was different. On the MSX
machines, the ground is pin 8 and on the NEC units, the ground is pin 2.
I sent him the audio port specs from the NEC manual and he built up a
custom cable by moving the ground from pin 8 to pin 2. When it arrives I
will give a report. Sellers ID is cool-novelties.
