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

Is it worth copying LPs from a crappy old radiogram?
Especially as they will be worn out now after being
played on it.


The thing is I have some old limited edition discs which have tracks
unobtainable elsewhere.



If so, you could take an output from the top and bottom of
the volume control, which would be a better level and less
distorted than the speaker output.
Wherever you take the output from, check you don't have a live
chassis.

Would these need attenuating?
