I want to use this to add to old stereo receiver/amplifier just to get more ports to add cd players, tape decks, etc. I would connect it to the auxiliary port on the amplifier. Would this work?

I have connected to my surround sound receiver, then have connected my directv, ps3, and wii to 3 of the 8 ports. With a push of a button, I can switch any of them to the surround sound. I would imagine anything else I connected to it would work as well. So I dont see why a cd player or tape deck wouldnt work the same.

It should work for this. I haven't tried audio only, but technically speaking this should work.

A short answer is yes! I use mine with a TV but will work with an amplifier as well. Take the red and white out from your dvd, cd player etc and plug into a red and white IN on the switch box. Take the 2 red and white outs from the switch box and plug into the red and white IN of the amplifier. To be able to do any of these the red and white have to be a RCA Phono plug typeThe dvd,vcr etc have to have a red and white OUT Phono Plug and the amplifier has to have a red and white IN phono plug. In the case of a dvd player the red and white should work for the sound with the amplifier but the yellow will have to be connected to the video IN of your TV. A short answer is yes!

You have to connect the out put of this unit to an amplifier or stereo system with an input for CD players or auxiliary input . You cannot hook speakers up directly to this unit.

Yes this would work. This is merely an adapter to go from RCA to whatever you want.

I would simply use asset of rca type cables.I am not sure what brand of receiver you have but all of them I have seen have the red/white rca jacks for multipul inputs. Normally the cd in jacks give the best headphone sound rather than aux or phono

Yes it is a stereo amp. Depending on how have it wired up it should work. However my experience with this product is that it is not a true 400 watt amp. When you turn up the gain sound quality degrades very quickly. I would not use it for more than running small door speakers.

you could if you had a convert cable from rca jacks to 1/4 inch. but it might not sound all that well as this is designed to amplify a passive signal and usually cd players and some recievers have at least a bit of voltage, this will cause quite a bit of distortion. try another amp like a behringer gm 108 , or a fender rumble 15 watt. i have both of those and each has inputs for pre amplified sources. i hope that helped

Presumed you want to use on a powered speaker having a receiver or amplifier. Yes you can use this by connecting it to auxilliary input. Hope this helps

There are lots of RCA connectors on the back of the receiver, and are all line level inputs for things like tape decks, CD players, VCRs etc.. The thing you need to know is if your old turntable used a magnetic cartridge which most of the better turntables from the late '60s up to the the early '90s did, you will need to get a phono preamp for it. They are available on Amazon for a reasonable price.

Yes,it has a built in phono pre-amp and will work through either an aux,cd,or tape input. You just make sure that the turntable is on the correct setting,it also has a setting that bypasses the built in setting for use with an amp that has it's own phono pre-amp,I have an older receiver that has one built in.

Don't why it wouldn't work. I used it for connecting a turntable to a powered speaker bar.

This should work for that. I have mine set up to work with an old pair of B&O; speakers, and it sounds great! It's not a super powerful amp, so it won't get all that loud, but it puts out good sound. It has both USB and RCA inputs so you can hook it up to a computer AND another external input.

I have limited knowledge of the technical aspects of car stereo as my installation was completed by a friend who does this type of work for a living. This is a passive equalizer and should have no impact on the amount of power you are pushing. Therefore, it can be used in any application were you are using an amp, your head unit, or both to power your speakers. If you want to be sure that this will work, I suggest asking someone who does installations.

Yes. That is exactly what I did with mine. You may need an adapter depending on the stereo input connections.
1317283
yes it should work very well as long as the turntable has a built in preamp. just hook it up to the auxiliary of the amplifier.

not an expert here, but I do own this product. If you are outputting from a computer and you have an adapter that splits from the mono jack into regular + and - speaker cables yes. BUT this is not an amplifier, and if your computer doesnt have a way to boost the signal like a pre-amp then I dont think it will work like you want. You lose some power from the source through the splitter. I'm sure one of the more knowledgeable people would ring in, but look at the inputs on the picture to get a better idea.

I believe so. It's standard RCA stereo connection IN to the adapter, then USB OUT to the computer. So I would think any sound source that is coming RCA OUT to RCA IN should be fine. I used my tape deck and my turntable. Only thing you might have to play with is the PHONO/LINE switch. When I used my turntable directly into the adapter, I had to use the PHONO setting. It's really easy to use and I think it's a great product.

Should be fine with your receiver. There are usually several places on receivers to plug in accessory machines that use phono plug inputs. If you're replacing your cd player with this machine, it could plug into the same place where the old machine was plugged into, for instance. I love this machine. Great old school technology and you can randomly shuffle and have continuous music for a long time.
