Subject: [slinkelist] New User with Two Jukeboxes Needs Setup Help
I recently acquired a hand-me-down Slink-e from a friend who got a =
newer version. I had a single Sony 210 jukebox, installed CDJ, and =
everything worked great. So then I had to go and get another Sony 225 =
jukebox to hold the remainder of my library cause the automation was so =
great. Now I have a connection problem and would like to know what the =
more experienced users are doing.
I have connected by second jukebox to the Slink-e and it works fine. =
But my Yamaha preamp only has inputs for a single CD changer. What's the =
best way to connect the second jukebox to my preamp inputs? Is it =
acceptable to simply use a "Y" adapter to connect both jukeboxes to the =
single set of inputs? Thanks for any advice.
