Thanks, useful stuff.
As far as I can see now, the path would be CD player > pre-amp CD input (as per usual) > tape out to buffer > buffer to tape in.
I had a chat with a UK supplier who takes returns for a full refund within a 14-day period. I am considering an experimental tweaklet, not knowing the first thing about valves. No idea how it will sound.
I don't know what impedance mismatches are, but my aim is to see if I can get a softer, warmer tone with some recordings which at the moment I'm finding uncomfortably bright. According to Icon Audio, that's what their device does.
