huh…im not going to continue arguing my former point as im kind of questioning my logic at the moment. i might have been for some reason mixing the tape in/out up with a preamp in/out.

it will work fine. tape play = tape out. tape rec = tape in. connect tape play to equalizer input, and tape rec to equalizer output.

that guy literally talks about “upgrading” speaker cable from 1 brands 16ga to another brands 16ga making a difference in the sound quality. so i would take that entire article, and anything he ever has to say about anything, as pure nonsense.

“Stepping up the cable quality from standard Radio Shack 16-gauge wire also pays dividends in upper-midrange clarity and high-frequency extension—both priorities. Swapping the 16-gauge wire for a $199 pair of AudioQuest Rocket 33 speaker cables, and the supplied RCA patch cords for two pairs of $39 AudioQuest Copperhead interconnects, brings greater focus to the overall presentation.”

yeah no. fuck that guy. he dosent even mention what hes listening to them on, the size of his “test room”, and the entire article is nothing but meaningless buzzwords and marketing jargon. hes the kind of guy who believes that the kind of wood in an electric guitar makes a difference in its sound, because the company paying him to review it said it does.
