SV: [sdiy] noise with vintage equipment

[John Alex Hvidlykke]

Hi Benjamin

I am not familiar with the connections on that instrument, but when you say
"a stereo out", is that perhaps a headpohone connector? If so some of the
noise might be from a less-than-perfect headphone amplifier. Are there any
other outputs on the Eminent, and does the problem persist?

Regards

John
