My apologise if I've posted in the wrong section, it's my first time.
I have a portable squeeze box. I want to use it as a source of internet radio in my hifi system. It only has a headphone out socket. This works but is not ideal and not the best quality I expect.
Is there any way of adding in some RCA sockets which would give a fixed output at the right level?
I would be interested if anyone has done this.
Thank you.

Do you mean the Squeezebox "Duet", that has a box that's all black, with no display, called the "Receiver" and a portable unit with a display, called the "Controller"?
The Controller has indeed a headphone output.
I don't think you would improve much by just changing the plugs.
But if it is a Duet that you have, then the "Receiver" has RCA outputs.
The "Controller" is normally used as a remote control for the "Squeezebox server", that runs on a computer. The "server" streams the music to the "Receiver" player, that turns it into sound.
In fact you can also run a software version of the player on that same computer, and control that one with your remote. The output would come from the soundcard of the computer.

Only a headphone socket out.

Ah yes, sorry.
It's the "portable" part that got me confused...
That product is the "Squeezebox Radio".
Have you already looked at the Slim Devices forum?

Maybe you can ask the question there.
