As I was read Your message I thought about what I heard a long time ago,
that as a man ages we don't hear some of the higher frequency audio.

Your mentioning 'mic/line input' had me remember using a 4 Ohm to 10,000 Ohm
transformer with the Amplifier in my Record Player to use it as a Intercom
in my house.

Later I did put a (tubed) phono amplifier in the box the intercom speaker
was mounted in.
The amp came out of a friends Junk Box.

Then I could have the intercom On and listen to my Records too.

I can identify with that... My C=64 gear is still working when I turn it on.
The Majority of Floppy Disks that I put in the 1541 FDD still have what I
stored on them.

Does Yours work O.K. too?
