[QUOTE="Sarel.wagner, post: 1134912, member: 25509"] Ja for Lo-Fi and MM carts, tapping into the audio signal may work, somewhat. The issue will always be the changing impedance and capacitance and inductance of the circuit. Lots of systems do not have a stand alone phono pre stage, and therefore no easy way to tap the signal without changing it. After a phono pre stage, we can tap into the signal and not mess up the cartridges output too much. Me thinks I will stay well away from messing with the audio. For ease of use, no external wiring except for power. Groetnis [/QUOTE]
