I need some help setting up a small Cd Player with head Phones with the amp in them and into my nashville 112.I just bought a radio shack 4 channel stereo sound mixer and I need help to set this all up. I want to be able to play rythum tracks on the CD player and have it go throu my Head phones and my Nashville 112 amp so I can hear the Rythum track and the Steel in the head phones. My wife complains about it being to loud and she can not hear the TV in the next room. We now live in a 14x60 Mobil home. Any help would be appreciated.

very easy to do and you will like it first the headphones either has to have a ¼ ring and tip end or you can get an adapter and you plug it into the back where the picture of the headset is. with this pluged in anything going into the amp will only comeout of the headset. Next still on the back of the amp is an outlet that says preamp out or cd in.it also ia a ¼ ring and tip. you must have a volume control on the cd player so you can balance the sound of the cd and steel
hope this helps |

Plug the CD player into the CD input on the back of the amp.
Plug your steel into the usual input on the amp.
Plug your headphones into the headphone output on the amp.
Control the CD volume from the CD player, and the steel volume from the amp. |

| Sam, The easiest way is to go from your CD player to the second input on the front of the 112, providing your CD player has a volume control. To use the CD jack in the back, you need a stereo cable. I was never able to get a good sound using this jack. If you want to use a little mixer, [I do now], go from the CD player into the mixer, and using one of the channels on the mixer go from the mixer to the post EQ patch on the front of the 112 and with a second cord, return from the post EQ to the mixer. As Larry has pointed out, when you plug the headphones in, everything comes through the phones instead of the amp speaker. George |

Sam,
The cable you will need to run the CD player into the rear CD input on the amp is available at Radio Shack for about $3.00. It has two pin type jacks into one 1/4" phone jack, that way you will receive both channels of signal from the player to the 112. To balance the mix... the CD volume is controlled by the post gain volume knob on the amp, so if the guitar is too loud,cut back the pregain, the CD player too loud, cut back the post gain or boost the pre gain. |
