How to hook up a pioneer 7 band gr 470 equalizer to a Kenwood kr-v6030 receiver

To connect a Kenwood GE 7030 equalizer to a Pioneer SX-217 receiver, you will need to use the tape record out and in jacks on the back of the receiver. Here is a general outline of the steps you can follow to set up the connection:

Locate the tape record out and in jacks on the back of the receiver. These are typically labeled "TAPE MONITOR OUT" and "TAPE MONITOR IN."

Locate the tape in and out jacks on the back of the equalizer. These are typically labeled "TAPE IN" and "TAPE OUT."

Use a pair of RCA cables to connect the tape out jack on the receiver to the tape in jack on the equalizer.

Use another pair of RCA cables to connect the tape out jack on the equalizer to the tape in jack on the receiver.

Turn on the equalizer and set the volume and tone controls to your desired settings.

Turn on the receiver and select the tape monitor function. You should now be able to hear sound through the speakers.

If you are still having trouble getting the equalizer to work, it is possible that there is an issue with the cables or with one of the components. You may want to try using different cables or checking for any visible signs of damage on the components. If you are still having trouble, it may be helpful to consult the user manual for the receiver or the equalizer or to seek the assistance of a professional audio technician.

Hi James Kohler, to connect the EQ SH-8029 to the Kenwood KR-710, you must have two cables from 2 RCA to 2 RCA
One connects it to the EQ Line In (Line In) and on the other hand you connect it to the REC output of Tape1 in the Kenwood, the other cable goes from the Line Out of the EQ to the entrance Tape1 PLAY at Kenwood
In order to hear the equalized sound, you must select the Source, example; Radio CD, Phono and you must enable Tape 1
If you had used Tape 1 connections, you can use Tape 2 and if you have used both of Tape, you can do what you indicated first and what was in Tape 1 connect it to the Tape entrance, which brings the EQ
I hope you can connect it
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola James Kohler, para conectar el EQ SH-8029 al Kenwood KR-710, deberas contar con dos cables de 2 RCA a 2 RCA
Uno lo coenctas en la Entrada de Linea del EQ(Line In) y por el otro lado lo conectas a la salida de REC de Tape1 en el Kenwood, el otro cable va desde la salida de Linea (Line Out) del EQ hasta la entrada PLAY de Tape1 en el Kenwood
Para poder escuchar el sonido ecualizado, deberas seleccionar la Fuente, ejemplo ; Radio CD, Phono y debes habilitar Tape 1
Si tubieras utilizadas las conexiones de Tape 1, puedes usar Tape 2 y si tienes utilizadas las dos de Tape, puedes hacer lo que te indique primero y lo que estaba en Tape 1 lo conectas en la entrada de Tape, que trae el EQ
Espero lo puedas conectar
Saludos Franco Dosil

Normally you would hook up the EQ to the tape recorder in and outs of the Sherwood. This way if it has a tape monitor button, you can press that and all the functions would pass into the EQ.

Connect equalizer to preamp outputs and inputs on receiver. If none, use tape monitor input/outputs to set up equalizer.

Connecting an Equalizer to a Receiver Before beginning, purchase RCA cables. In order to run the signal from a stereo receiver to the graphic equalizer and then on to the amplifier, two sets of RCA cables are needed. These are basic cables used to connect auxiliary components like record players and CD players. The length of the RCA cables should be about the same length as the distance between the receiver and equalizer.

1. Connect Graphic the Equalizer to the Receiver

The first step in this setup is to connect the graphic equalizer (EQ) to the receiver. Most receivers will have preamp-in and preamp-out connections. Some have tape monitor connections. It's preferable to connect the EQ to the preamp-in or preamp-out because the tape monitor won't allow for connection to the amplifier as well.

2. Connect the RCA Cables

The first set of RCA cables should connect the receiver and equalizer. Connect one pair to the preamp output channels and the other end to the left and right input channels on the EQ. These are on the back side of the equalizer. Usually, the colors will correspond to the RCA plugs. That means connect the red plug to the red jack and the white plug to the white jack. Then connect the second pair of RCA cables between the receiver and the amp. Match the colors in the same way.

3. Connect the Amp to the Receiver

Now the amp can be connected to the receiver via RCA cables in the amp inputs on the receiver. This will create a loop from the receiver through the EQ and amp and back to the receiver so that all three units are connected.

4. Test Graphic Equalizer

Turn on the receiver, amp and equalizer. Once they are powered up, try controlling the sound with the equalizer knobs. They should fine tune the music according to your preferences. It's easy to change the frequency response or tone of the music with the equalizer knobs.

tape out from reciever to line in on the eq --then line out from the eq to tape in on the reciever --whenever the tape monitor will be used on the reciever the sound will then be equalized

To zyclon3, I've got a KR-V6030 that the volume knob some how got broke and had to take the receiver apart and get the knob out and play with it with the remote untill I got control. but I have to becareful cause it will go full blast if I'm not carefull going down in volume have to be especialy carefull since theres no stop.

The proper sequence to eq just your CD player is, CD out to EQ in, EQ out to receiver in.

no need for phono, you can go to radio shack and get a selection switch to make things easier.
