I have a Beomaster 2200 and Beogram 4002 - I want to use the Beomaster 2200 as both a headphone amplifier and as a phono preamp for the beogram - The only problem I have is that the tape out signal is really really low, too low in fact to feed another amp with the Beogram output. Headphones work find and the amp in it works fine - is there an easy way of bringing the tape output upto line level?

Are you connecting to the correct pins on the tape output? It should be pins 1 and 4. The tape output level is rather low on these units (100mV),but there is scope to increase the output by altering the value of some resistors inside the unit. Are you confident in opening the unit and doing some soldering?If not,entrust the work to someone else. Nick
