jay, how does it sound? if your hk amp has a main-in out, you can connect your GC as power amp

@ sir pk, not sure what you mean. anyways, the available connections at the back are;
- phono input jacks - tuner input jacks - aux input jacks - tape 1 input jacks - tape 1 output jacks - tape 2 input jacks - tap2 output jacks
the shure cart i got is more of an entry-level type. my only complaint is that on certain records (swing out sister and tears for fears, medyo prominent yung 's'). ito ba yung sibilant na characteristic. is this one of the cart's (the stylus in particular) shortcomings?
been thinking of trying the OEM carts like the one you have but unfortunately, mailyn from WS hasnt replied yet.
@ sir hans, needed to scrub the tt a bit because of the yellow discoloration accumulated over the years from storage. but all in all, a good buy. lots of tlc will probably keep this unit going. thanks!

TT to phono input jack 2. tape 1 output jack to GC input jack ;D

sir hans, so the idea is to turn the hk into a preamp (controller) and the gc as the power amp? if i remember correctly, doc j and sir pk also mentioned something similar to me; integrated to gc with the gc's volume pot turned to max (although i wasn't sure about the connections part of it). thanks sir hans, will give it a try.

Thus volume will be controlled by the GC. If the hk has preout, then, you can control the volume level on the hk. tama kaya yung sinabi ko? ;D ;D Ah! Basta! Sigurado ako magiging adik ka sa plaka. Isa ka nang kaagaw sa lps. ;D ;D

sirs, i tried connecting the hk to the gc as per instructions and it works! questions lang po; - won't there be a degradation of the signal since another link (GC) was added to the chain? - is there a way to counter yung sibilance i'm experiencing in some recordings (analog or digital)? - is sibilance a by-product of the recording process (LP or cd), the cartridge/stylus or the system itself? thanks po!

sirs, i tried connecting the hk to the gc as per instructions and it works! questions lang po; - won't there be a degradation of the signal since another link (GC) was added to the chain? - technically no, since its a component that you need to produce sound in the first place... may degradation in terms of absolute, pero the HK acts as a phono preamp that boosts the signal in the first place to make it "usable" by the GC and produce sound - is there a way to counter yung sibilance i'm experiencing in some recordings (analog or digital)? - yes - is sibilance a by-product of the recording process (LP or cd), the cartridge/stylus or the system itself? thanks po! - its a by product of the whole set-up, can start with the set-up of the table, levelling, vta, tracking force up to cables, phono stage, cartridge, vinyl, etc... ;D attack them one at a time na lang
