Put a treadmill in our guestroom so obviously some tunes were in order. Have a 5cd player into a dac into the intergrated. Have a tube buffer and an IPOD so bought a adapter to hook the IPOD to the buffer and then to the integrated. The cd sounds fine but very very low volume on the IPOD connection, what I be doing wrong?

thanks as usual!

    Turned the volume on the ipod all the way up and it got better but still not loud enough, took the buffer out of the equation and poof and voila!! We got tunes:mrgreen: So i guess the buffer will go on the market...thanks for your help!
