Equalizer hook up.

I can't tell you how to hook it up, but it certainly can be done from experience with that Spatial Enhancer and a Equalizer. If I remember correctly, I had to add a Pre-AMP so I could hook up my Equilizer to my BSR Spatial Enhancer to the Receiver using Tape A or B. Years ago, I had a Pioneer SX 750 Receiver, a Realistic 20 Band Equalizer, your BSR Spatial Enhancer AND the BSR Spectrum Analyzer (just the Analyzer) unit and not the combo 3000 Equalizer and Analyzer. I had 2 Pre-Ams feeding into 2 Realistic 6 channel In 2 out Mixing Boards, 3 tape decks and 2 turntables and somehow got all of it to work. I wish I had kept the wiring diagram schematic I made, but that was 20 years ago when I last saw it. I'm now facing the same dilemma of keeping my xbox and Alexis Dot hooked up to the receiver as I ad the equalizer and the spatial enhancer. I think, (If I remember correctly) the Pre-Amps with the Turntables were the "Key". Like I said, it can be done as instead of 3 tape decks and a cd player and 2 turntables, along with a Reel to Reel system, I managed to feed it all in and get the sounds I wanted.

If you only have one set of tape in/out connectors, then hooking up two tape decks and an equalizer is going to be difficult. You could hook the "tape out" to one tape deck, that tape's output to the second tape, and the second tape's out to the equalizer, connecting the output of the eq back to your receiver....

you hook it up through your tape monator just like you were hooking a tape deck up if you have a tape deck pluged in there you should be able to plug it in to the back of equalizer the same way

Any equalizer I have seen can be hooked to the tape loop of a receiver and then any tape deck displaced from that loop if one was plugged in will be hooked to the tape loo[p on the equalizer.
This is a very simple process and one that is often given in the owners manual of the equalizer involved.

Ron there is no such manual except those that might come with the Equalizer- Actually , the process is very simple. You take the output of the equalizer in hook to tape in. Tale the record out of the tape loop and hook to input of the equalizer. Then the equalizer will work when the tape look (tape monitor) for the receiver is selected- that is why it is called a tape loop as signal goes out and comes back in. If you have Pre outs and Pre in you could use it there too. In the tape loop connection any tape deck is then hooked to the Equalizer tape inputs- some have two.

The equalizer I have seen have Line in, line out, tape in, tape out and that is how you utilize a unit like this. The line IN goes to the receivers tape record out. The line out goes to the receivers Tape play in or monitor, The tape deck hooks to the equalizer. The record or input of the tape deck hooks to the EQ record out, the Tape decks output hooks to the EQ's Tape in connectors. All these are stereo so there are left and right sides which you need to keep consistent. Red on a cable means Right, the white or black on cables mean Left or the top RCA connector on most equipment.
When playing back a tape the tape monitor is turned on with the receiver and left on. The way you record on tape from any source of the receiver is to select that source and it should go to the equalizer. Then the deck should record that source. To play a tape of the deck hooked to the equalizer then just press the tape monitor button on the EQ otherwise the Equalizer will just act as a loop and equalize any signal source that is coming from the receiver and the tape monitor on the receiver should stay on most of the time. Some equalizers have two tape inputs so you would hook another deck to that input and the owners manual of the equalizer should say how to select buttons to transfer tape signals from one to the other. If you master the concept of inputs and output of audio equipment then this hookup becomes another easy thing to do.

Treat each EQ (or any processor) as as Tape Deck and place it on its own Tape loop on the Denon. Tape deck(s) can attach to external processors because they always have tape loops to replace the one they use.

Rule of Thumb: OUT's go to IN's.

You can have as many processors as you want. I have five.

You can serialize processors if they would logically be used together or you could get a dbx-200 or dbx-400 Program Route Selector which provides connections and switching facilities for 3 processors and 3 tape decks but uses only one tape loop on the receiver.

Individual processors can be engaged or disabled, and the whole mess can be placed in the record OR the playback end of the chain - all via front panel switches. Very versatile.

Equalizer (310-2025) Connections Faxback Doc. # 48943

Follow these steps to connect the equalizer to your audio system.

CAUTIONS: Use only shielded audio cable with RCA-type connectors (not
supplied). This type of cable is available at your local
RadioShack store.

Before you connect the equalizer, turn off all components in
your audio system and unplug their power cords.

Before you plug in the equalizer's power cord, complete all
connections and be sure the equalizer's POWER button is out.

1. To connect the equalizer to your receiver, connect the receiver's TAPE
OUT jacks to the equalizer's MAIN IN jacks.

Then, connect the equalizer's MAIN OUT jacks to your receiver's TAPE
IN or TAPE MONITOR jacks.

2. You can connect a tape deck to each set of tape jacks (TAPE 1 and TAPE
2) on the back of the equalizer.

To connect each tape deck, connect the equalizer's TAPE OUT jacks to
the tape deck's in jacks. Then, connect the tape deck's out jacks to
the equalizer's TAPE IN jacks.

3. Plug the equalizer's power cord into your receiver's switched power
outlet or any standard AC outlet.

WARNING: The equalizer's power cord has a polarized plug. To prevent
electric shock, do not use an extension cord or other
receptacle unless you can fully and easily insert the plug's
blades.

4. Connect the power cords of all other components.

(wr 08/04/98)

please connect as the following-----1-mp3 out-----to cd in in your receiver.
2-receiver rec out (tape put)----to equalizer in.
3-equalizer out----to tape in in receiver.

Connect the EQ to the Sherwood as if it were a tape deck: EQ's outs connect to receiver's tape ins (play) and EQ's ins connect to receiver's tape outs (record).
Then you hook the tape deck up to the tape ins and outs on the EQ: Tape deck outs connect to EQ's tape ins (play) and tape deck ins connect to EQ's tape outs (record).
This will put the EQ in your receiver's tape loop.
The CD player should be connected to the receiver though the CD in's and out's (or if your Sherwood doesn't have a CD in/out, then use AUX or TAPE2).
To hear the EQed signal with all receiver sources (like the CD player) you'll need to engage the 'Tape Monitor' button or switch which will route the tape loop to the speakers.
