Scott,
Have no fear, a mono plug will not damage the K2 - there are resistors
in each side of the headphone circuit for exactly that reason - BUT, you
will lose half of the full audio output.
It is better to use a stereo jack and tie both the tip and ring together.
As another alternative, use the external speaker jack in the back - it
is a mono jack.

Hello
I plan to wire my AEA PK-232MBX to use with my K2. The K2 has the stero
headphone jack and
my PK-232 has a mono sound input jack. If I use a mono plug in the K2
headphone jack is that
going to damage the K2 sound system? If I use two wires, one on each
side of the stero jack
to the single contact on the plug at the PK-232 would it be nescessary
to install diodes in the lines
