Re: No Sound

If you're using iTunes I wouldn't bother with MP3 - rather I would use AAC which is Apple's format that it uses as default when you rip CDs into your iTunes library or if you buy a song from the iTunes Store. AAC genearlly gives better quality that MP3 for the same bitrate. Just export as WAVs from ...

Re: Input Level Too Low

See, now if you were on a Mac, you could use the built-in S/PDIF connection and do it all digitally. No transmission loss. Or if you have an Edirol UA-1EX external USB soundcard (or similar) connected to a PC - then you can use the digital SPDIF input on the Edirol and keep it all in digital :) WC

Instead I resurrected mty old Technics TT from the attic, treated it to a home service and a new cartridge - and I bought a small phono pre-amp and an e...
