Suggestions for boosting Audio to recording equip ...

[gregzz4]

Thanks for the offer Aqua

It's the RCA audio signal from the downstairs cable box that is lacking
If I record from the upstairs box all is normal

The signal from downstairs is split to the TV there and to the DVD-r upstairs

I'm hoping this does the trick and if not, I'll live with turning up the amp when watching recordings from downstairs
