I want to transcribe my LP's, tapes etc to CD. The problem is that the
only output from my old tape/record/tuner box is the loudspeaker leads.
I believe that these will not match the Line In on my PC
I think the signal may be too great and that it needs attenuating.
Am I right? Can this be done and how precisely may I achieve this. I
have no problem using a soldering iron
Many thanks
MIke

Maplins sell a small in-line variable attenuator (~£3) designed for stereo
headphone usage. I've got one sitting between my amp's output and my PC's
soundcard - it's allowed me to set the PC's input attenuators round about
3/4 full scale, instead of being close to 1/10 FS where the slightest nudge
is problematic.
