Question Rca splitters or switchers what would work best?

[makinmusic]

Hi guys il start with any help is appreciated. I have a Nad 3225pe integrated amp, a technics Sh-z200 graphics equaliser, a technics sl-pg3 cd deck and a technics sl-bd20 turn table. While I know graphics equalisers aren't for everyone I do quite enjoy minipulating the sound to suit my ears. While the graphics equaliser is fairly new to me as in purchased yesterday so far have found it great. I'm looking to now connect the cd deck up through it while I see on the back of it it does have other connectors to push a tape deck through it I wondered if it was best to push the cd deck through the same input I'm pushing the turn table through at the moment as the tape deck option has extra buttons for recording features. So I have been looking at rca splitters and rca switchers while reading other posts in the forum some more older posts seemed to go off in to tangents so figured I'd create a new post and get a fresh perspective.

I think you might be overcomplcating matters by adding yet another item in the loop. Just connect CD to tape in on the equaliser.

Graphic equalisers were usually used in the tape loops of integrated amps (which is why they often have 'tape monitor'switches on the front).

Tape loops meant that all sources of the amp could be EQ'd.

How you connect depends on which source(s) you want to EQ.
What make / model of equaliser is it?

Will give it a go

Just cd and turn table as don't have a tape deck.

don't have a tape deck.

No, and you don't need one of course.
But you've got a tape loop on your NAD amp - which is how any of its sources can be equalised.

What is the make and model of the equaliser?
