Connections


I just replaced my Nakamichi PA7II amp and CA7A preamp with a Hegel H30 amp and P30A preamp. I have a couple of tape decks in my system and the CA7A had jacks on the back for recording and playback. The P30A has just input connectors on the back, no record jacks. I don't really do a lot of recording these days so it is not that big of a deal but I was wondering if someday I did want to record to my reel to reel deck, is it possible with the P30A?

Thanks..

yes take your pre out and plug them in to your rec in you cant touch the volume while recording 

 

or split the outputs from your sources taks one set to the hegel and another set to a switch box ad take the output of the switchbox to your rec in.

Dave and Troy,

I have a couple more questions about this. The P30A has RCA1 and RCA2, Analog out jacks. So both of these jacks can be used for record jacks, correct?

Also a question about switchboxes. Does using a switchbox in a high end system degrade the sound? Is there such a thing as a high end switchbox? And if I was going to try that, is there a particular one you would recommend?

 

Thanks..

Tape recording/monitoring is a royal pain without a tape loop. They are hard to come by any.
