|  old Hitachi receiver and CD player hookup | Dave The Canuck Feb 7, 2003 8:29 PM | | Hi,
I am trying to help out a friend who needs a cheap receiver after his blew up. My uncle gave me an old Hitachi Dynaharmony receiver, which I thought would work perfectly, except there's no auxiliary input. I was able to hook up a CD player through the tape monitor jacks, but the power LEDs on the receiver flash 50 watts at a fairly low volume with my efficient speakers. Something obviously is wrong. Am I hooped when it comes to using this piece with a CD player, or is there some fairly cheap modification to allow this? Thanks in advance. PS: These were fairly innovative receivers in that their Dynaharmony feature allowed them quite a bit of dynamic headroom. Were they any good? Thanks in advance! |

I know very little about Hitachi except that I bought a Hitachi cassete deck new about 25 years ago and it was a total peace of junk, and I never touched Hitachi again. If the CD player has a variable output, you might turn that down some. Really hard to say with that reciever, but I have used tape inputs for CD on other recievers with no problems. |
