Hi,

I'm trying to connect my Technics 1210 to my Ouverture and so far I've bought a 2xRCA to 5-pin mini din convertor, connected everything up, and although I can get sound I have to have the volume very high (70+) and doing so causes a lot of hissing from the speakers which is just about audible over the music. Obviously I've gone for the very simplist approach of plugging everything together and hoping it works, so has anyone got a more sensible approach and can advise what I should have done / am doing wrong?

Thanks. 

You need a RIAA pre amp between the deck and the Ouverture!!

Try the Sounds Heavenly advert at the bottom of the page. The boss is Steve and he can help with the pre amp and any cables you will need.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate it, I'll get in contact with him.

I also googled it and got this match from ebay, I assume it's pretty much the same thing? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RIAA-Pre-Amp-Kit-for-Bang%26Olufsen-B%26O-Beogram%2fBeoSound_W0QQitemZ110373914383QQcmdZViewItem 

Ignore my last post as I just looked at the ebay picture again and have seen that it's actually heavenlysounds that are selling it!!!!  Thanks again for your help :-) 

That is exactly the one I mean and it's soundsheavenly!!
