Using Crack with BeePre2 - how to wire tape output?

(1/2) > >>

Hi, I have a Crack that I'm hoping to use with my BeePre2.  I searched through the forum and came across a tip to wire in tape output.  Could someone give a little more info on how to do this (parts needed, what areas to tap into to do this)? 

Paul Birkeland:
The output of the selector switch (A, B, C, and D) are the tape outputs.  Red is right +, white is left +, and the adjacent black wires are the grounds for each channel.

Thanks for the info Paul.  I'm assuming I would attach a pair of RCA jacks using the output method you mentioned above.  How have people typically done this in the past, do they attach a RCA cable directly or attach jacks and mount them somewhere on the base or top plate? 

Paul Birkeland:
You could put jacks in the holes we provide for the balanced input transformers, I think that would be the easiest way.  Using shielded twisted pair wiring is a good idea, with the shield terminating to the chassis in the BeePre (similar to how the input wiring is done).

Thanks Paul, late reply - just started putting the kit together.  How does this look?
