Wahey!!! Thanks everyone. I put it into the MD/DAT input and it is fine. I'm using 0dB without problems and the hissing is MUCH reduced (still appears when I pause the Empeg and put the volume WAY up on the amp).
BTW, wish list for the MK3 : digital out (optical or coax).

Thanks to all those who helped. Does anyone have any info for me regarding the voladj mod and the 1.03 kernel (see point 3 on my original post)?

Cheers,
Andy
