How to connect my EQ properly? (self.budgetaudiophile)
 

I have an older stereo system which I use mostly for listening to vinyl and CDs. I also have a cassette player which I rarely use.

Currently I have my turntable routed to my EQ which then has an out to the 'phono' input on my receiver.

Unfortunately with this setup I can't use the EQ with CDs as my CD player has an 'out' that goes directly to the 'CD' input.

I feel like I had this set up so that I could EQ any input but don't remember how I got this to work. I've googled and haven't found anything that explains this clearly, like I'm 5.

I feel like I had to loop things through my cassette deck or something.

Here are the connections on the back of my Receiver.

Here is my EQ

Here is my Cassette deck.

Any assistance appreciated.

Bulkhead plug for 1.25" hole? (self.homebrewing)
 

I have an aluminum kettle I used for a home-built electric brewing system. The water heater element I used required a 1.25" hole.

Fast forward a few years and I bought an Anvil Foundry and want to convert my old kettle back to one I can use for occasional propane BIAB batches.

I've searched online and don't see any off-the-shelf options for Bulkhead hole plugs for a 1.25" diameter holes.

Anyone know of a place that sells these or how I can build something myself using items from the hardware stores?

Thanks.

Now i'm definitely cheering for Rulestein in c/[email protected]

Frankly I'm not sure NATO can rely on Turkey.

So our choice is between run-of-the-mill president or a guy who says he wants to a dictator, violently tried to overturn the last election, had fake electors etc. etc.

I'm not excited about Biden but the choice seems to be pretty straightforward and I'll be SURE to get to the polls.

To beat Trump, we need to know why Americans keep voting for him. Psychologists may have the answer in c/politics

They may both suck but Trump and party made abortions a lot harder to get, have made life a lot harder for Trans people, tried to stop the transfer of power and are undermining the nations confidence in elections. In addition, some are now trying to undermine a bi-partisan deal on border security to have a talking point at the ballot box.

Elections a lot of times are a vote for the lesser of two evils. And because the President gets to nominate Supreme Court justices it's critical to vote. every. time.

Saying 'they both suck' is a cop-out.

Henry Ford designed the Model T to be a bare-bones vehicle affordable for the everyday person. Volkswagon designed the Beetle to be a bare-bones vehicle affordable for the everyday person.

The first car company to design an EV that's a bare-bones vehicle affordable for the everyday person will sell lots of them. Profit per car may be lower but perhaps we need to set the need for maximum profits aside on this particular issue?

My raises aren't even CLOSE to keeping up with inflation. Rather hard to splurge on a fancy EV with tons of high-tech nice-to-have features that are just going to break anyway. All I need to do is to get from point A to point B and have AC, heat and a half-decent stereo system.

so many great choices!!! in c/metalmemes

Libertarians are just Republicans who are embarrassed to admit it.

Is this part of a security system? (lemmy.world)
 

We bought a new house but haven't moved in yet. The previous owners moved out months ago. What is this thing in the corner of the living room? They may have had a security system by ADT in the past. They have a Ring doorbell. I don't plan to sign a contract with ADT. Any ideas? Should I try to uninstall it or cover it in the meantime?
