I have a Sony separate stereo setup. I'm not an expert in setting it
up, and would like any comments that could be offered. I acquired it
from a junk skip where someone had dumped it purely because one of the
sound channels was down, but upon inspection it turned out to be a
broken track where the headphone socket fixes to the board. With a
little care and a lot of soldering experience, I managed to get it
working perfectly... except for one thing......:-
I don't know how to connect the dam things properly.
I have failed to obtain a manual for general setup, and have only
managed to find a manual for the radio receiver (analogue) which
doesn't tell me how to set it all up together. and no-one I know has
the faintest idea how to set it up either..
Any helpful advise offered will be treated with utmost gratification.
Here's what equipment I have.;
TC-V715T Stereo Cassette Deck
SEQ-V7700 7band Graphic Equalizer
ST-V715L FM stereo FM/AM Tuner
CDP-M75 Compact Disc Player
TA-V715T Stereo Digital Reference/Integrated Stereo Premain Amplifier
More info/photos can be made available on request.
Thank you for reading this...
As you're not completely technically incompetent (you can solder
we
assume this equipment doesn't have standard, labeled phono sockets on
the back? Or you wouldn't be asking.
So what DOES it have?
LOL. yr right. I'm not that incompetent.. BUT.. have never had
separates before.
I would like to know this..
The front panel and the rear panel of the amp has Aux,Tape,CD,Tuner and
Phone inputs and select buttons. That i found elementary.. cd player
plugs into CD.. press CD and away we go. Same for tape etc.. that is
OK. Here's whats got me stuck. The EQUALISER.. How?
The equaliser can be plugged into the pre-amp-output and main-input, if
you have such things. Otherwise, the best way is to plug it up as if it
were a tape recorder, in the tape loop. Then, when you want to listen
through the equaliser, you push the tape monitor button. Problem comes
if you only have one tape loop, then you have to choose whether you
connect the tape recorder or the equaliser. Some EQs have tape in/out
sockets on the equaliser itself to which you connect the tape recorder.
The front of the amp had a DAT button, but no DAT inputs anywhere.
Press DAT, a pretty green light saying DAT appears, and amp acts like
it's in standby. No sound. So, I leave that off (I presume DAT is
something to do with old DAT tapes). Also on front of amp is an EQRec
button. Press it and it doesn't do anything different to the sound.
My guess is that this puts the tone controls in the tape output so
allowing you to EQ the recording.
The Equaliser has input, and Output. Ive tried a number of ways to
connect it.. but it only seems to work between one device and the amp
- depending which device it is connected through. IE CDplayer into EQ
into Amp. Now only CD has EQ working.
I'm confused.
Please see above regarding where to put the EQ.
Later today I will upload photos of front and rear panels to one of my
AOL or Yahoo accounts for download. I will post here when I have done
that (got to borrow camera).
It would be useful to see what ins and outs you actually have; all the
photos on Ebay of this amp are too poor to see anything useful.
