   Sorry, I mis-typed (fingers too fast?) The reason for that statement   
   of mine is that I have a box full of 15 pin D-Subs that are for custom   
   audio boards. I have no idea what they were for or what they did, but   
   the ones I have the D-Sub is then split off to a bunch of RCA audio   
   connectors. Entirely possible they plugged into what you have!
