The Amp. in question is a Goodmans Module 80, of the late 1970s!
Works fine, after I replaced some blown lamps, and some
funny-looking bulging capacitors, but cannot be described as 'more
recent'! It is of the same era as your JVC.

I'd have to dig though my old mags and documents to be sure. But I'd
guess it uses DIN sockets and has a line sensitivity of about 500 -
100 mV. So would need some resistors to cope with modern line
voltages (circa 1V to 2V).

IIRC the audio on a SCART is about 1V. So could also be used. You can
buy adaptors for this which output to phono/RCA sockets. CPC is your
friend. :-)

Slainte,

I already send the audio from the TV's SCART output to the Goodmans,
but as I mentioned, it only sends the audio of whatever TV channel the
TV is or was tuned to, so is no use when I'm using the PC as a
video source; hence the desire to use the PC's headphone output instead.
I can look for the specs. on the Goodmans, but I think I will be in no
hurry to do this, in case it damages something. I would be using the
Tape Recorder Input on the Goodmans. Physically, I can get the signals
there, after a bit of soldering.
Interestingly, the DIN socket from the dead donor cassette deck has a
bunch of resistors on the DIN socket board, but I can't see what
colours the bands are, they are hidden. At the moment. I have a DIN-DIN
cable already, it's a matter of getting the signal to it that requires
the soldering and construction of a connector. This is possible.
