Amplifier and 3 recorders

[ADAMFOULKES]

Hello all
I have a Sony TAF940 amp and it's getting on for being 20 years old.
It's still working great but have been looking at some more modern amplifiers.
The thing is I have three recorders I want to have the ability to use. A cd/hdd recorder/minidisc/ cassette recorder.
I've been looking at the Marantz pm6006 but it only seems to have one recording loop.is this the norm nowadays?
Are there any amps that I should be considering?
Thanks in advance, Ad

Not seen any amps with two or more recording outputs for a while, that not to say they don't exist.

Another option could be an audio switch if not recoding to all the recorders at the same time, an audio switch in the amps audio output something like a Beresford TC-7240.

This could also do the trick if only recording to one at a time

Doh,

The Yamaha A-S501 has audio in and out on Line 2 and 3.

I own one but don't currently use that facility. In fact the A-S301 up to the A-S801 all do.

Just ordered one to see how it does with my current amp. Thanks all for taking the time to reply

I bought one of those a year or so back to connect an SACD player, MiniDisc deck and cassette deck to some active speakers in my office. It's a nice sturdy little thing given the price and I've not had any issues with it.

I agree, very solid unit, I expected a plasticy cheap feeling thing for the money, but no

So it arrived today and I've got myself in a right muddle.
My hifi unit is in a corner and pressed against all my vinyl. Basically I cannot move the rack. I've stupidly taken all the rca cables out of the amp amp I can't remember what goes where.
Can anyone give me a dummies guide for setting things bacj up again
I have 2 tape loops one for cd recorder and one for minidisc but not for my tape deck. Thanks in advance

I have given up. Not sure if my unit is faulty but I have spent hours trying to make this thing work and to no avail.
Maybe it's me but I just cannot make it work. I have put an rca cable from the output socket on the unit into the record in on one of the tape loops and then put the cable that would've gone in to the record in into the units aux slot but was not able to record to my cassette unit.
A night I'll never get back of my life

Sounds wrong.

Output from tape or minidisc goes into input on the amp.
Record out on amp (or loop out) goes into input or record in on minidisc or tape.

If you get two of them going get back on here and I'll try talk you through using switch box for the third
