Hi

I recently got an old beocenter 1600 receiver.

I have two things I would like to connect to this. One is a grammophone player and the other is my ipod. Now the 1600 have two outputs/inputs on the back. One that says phono and one that says tape. I have connected my grammophone/turntable to the phono using a 5p DIN that connects to the red and white phono cabel. That works fine.

I then have tried to connect the ipod to the tape input/output on the 1600 using again a 5p DIN with four RCA she to connect to the red and white phono cabel that has a jackstick in the other end which goes to the ipod.

The problem is that when playing the ipod the sound is very low and there is a windy noise in the speakers that sometimes decreases in volume and other times increases in volume.

The phono works without any problems. The problems is with the tape output/input that connects to the ipod. What can I do with this problem???

In the 1600 there is an integrated taperecorder. The tape on the back is for a second taperecorder (originally). Should I somehow disconnect the integrated one in order to make it work?

I have been warned in putting the ipod constellation in the phono input/output because it is too sensitive. I however briefly tried and the problems had disappeared. So the problem seems to be located with the tape. Is it a problem to connect the ipod to the phono on the back or have I been misinformed.

Hope to get some help.

Thank you.
