You could either use that as your main receiver and return the new one, or just use it as a preamp with the tape rec line out going straight to one of the line-ins on your new receiver. Dunno how hi you want your fi (remember, "hi-fi is short for high finance"), but there's lots of older receivers on the cheap that work perfectly fine. Back in the days when receiver/amps were for listening to music instead of all the home theater 7.12 channel surround-o-phonic multi-zone stuff. -Randy
