it sounds different...


good day. just want to clear up things. i have a denon 2700 receiver, rotel 951 cdp, and aegis one spkrs. question is this: why do i get a different sound when i hook up my cdp to other inputs? i get a different sound when my cdp is hooked to the cd input and when i tried hooking it up to the vcr1/aux input, it sounded different? anyone already experienced this? any thoughts would be highly appreciated. thanx....

Showing 1 response by distortion

The overload could be in the input of the receiver. Compare the output voltage of the CD player with the input sensitivity of the receiver.

I think that CDP is similar to a RCD-971 (I have one of those) without looking at the spec sheet, I think the output voltage is around 200mv. Thats fairly low and shouldnt cause any trouble unless your Receivers input sensitivity is lower.

Is it causing audible distortion?
