Default Re: Quad 44 Preamplifier volume

If I'm interpreting this correctly so far I would guess you have just acquired the Quad so are not familiar with how to connect it up?
If so it seems you are confusing inputs with outputs. The inputs on the 44 are normally DIN, except for the phono, or disc input, unless, it has been modified with a CD input board which has din and phono connections. The 1.6 volt and 5 volt connections are outputs to a power amplifier, don't know how it has been giving any sound with the CD connected to an output.
So, if it has standard input connections you will need a phono to din cable to connect a CD player to it, this would be to the aux input.

What power amplifier are you using?
