Go on then. Make an even bigger fool of yourself. Just how much extra
noise does a power amp add to the input signal if you attenuate that
output back to line level? And discuss how much this will be noticeable
off an LP or cassette...


idea that inserting a speaker and mic into the equation might actually
improve thing is quite laughable.


It would be an improvement over directly connecting a speaker output to
a line level input.


You seem to be the only one suggesting this.
