Just as I figured. Thanks for the comfirmation guys. The RIAA converter module would certainly do the job. Seeing as it the VCR I'm trying to integrate I may look into adding a switch. Not as cool as the module but I won't have to wait for it to come from the UK. The customer only uses the VCR rarely. Thanks again.

To answer your question Nickster it's a frequency issue. Anyone who has ever attempted it will tell you what the end result is. As I heard is was loud and painful. Check out the link that technobeam1 left. There's a bit of an explanation there.
