Spectrum analyzer level problem

[wonky1969]

Hi all,

I currently use a bdp-131 spectrum analyzer on the main outputs,just coz I'm an eighties guy who missed seeing dancing lights,it works great at higher volumes,but due to a hearing condition called hyperaccousis, which prevents me from listening at higher volumes,it's rendered virtually useless.

So my question is,can the output to the analyzer be increased, without high volume?

Any pointers?

If you have a tape out you could put amplification between it and the spectrum analyser so you could drive it as hard as you like without having to blow your ears and speakers apart

Can you turn up the sensitivity? Looking at the rear its Line/XLR in out just monitoring the input and not related to how 'loud' you're playing music..
What other kit do you have?

Yes, sensitivity is at the highest level,at over 60db it's fine,I generally listen between 30-40db, hence my problem.
I have both rca and xlr out on my pre,xlr to my main active speakers,and the rca feed my sub,the rca out from the sub feeds the analyzer.
audio-PHIL-e,no tape outputs I'm afraid

Strider,I have a linn pre/streamer that has both rca and xlr out,I use both,no other outputs available i'm afraid
