Are the input jacks RCA or phono?

1/4" phono only on channels 5-12 Balanced XLR & 1/4" phono on channels 1-4. RCA on tape input and output.

They have two "phono plug" l/r inputs. You can adapt to any type of connector. I thought a standard turntable had phono plugs however also needs a amp/booster of some sort to boost the output to the amp. If your turntable has a way of getting a good signal out then you should be able to adapt to the phono plug on the speakers. The photo should sound great once connected.

No RCA input guys. Unfortunately one of my speakers quit working after a couple of months as well. Sucks. Just a heads up.

They do have stereo RCA phono plug inputs in the back, and most turntables have the RCA, (left and right/white and red), not 3.5 mm. But if your turntable really has a 3.5 mm or 1/4 inch output jack, you can connect it through the 1/8 inch TRS stereo input on the back of one of the speakers, and there is a separately adjustable 1/4 inch TRS mic input for vocal monitoring, too. They're great speakers, and well worth the money.

The manual states that the phono input is for MM cartridge and recommends a "boosting transformer" for a low output MC cartridge. The specification lists phono input sensitivity - 60mV or more. The manual is available at Yamaha for download. Hope this helps

Yes, there is a phono input that is amplified. This was one of my considerations when deciding between this and a Yamaha unit. Am waiting for delivery of my unit now and cannot wait to get it!

Hi again, Jerry... Just want to clarify my earlier answer... the speaker connections are not RCA. The phono, tape, CD and Video/Aux connectors are RCA. Sorry if my first answer was confusing....

Inputs from RCA inputs are already in analog form. No need for analog conversion.

It has stereo phono audio input and output jacks. 1/4" audio input and output jacks. Rec output jacks. XLR output jacks. Hope this was helpful.

There is no "phono" input on this receiver, so it doesn't have a preamp. You can use another RCA input (I am using "Tape"), but that will only work depending on your turntable, and if it has a built-in preamp. If your turntable has a "phono" out or phono switch/setting, it will work. I have one connected and it works fine. Otherwise, you will need to buy a little $20 preamp. If you are only looking to power your speakers for a turntable, this is probably not the receiver for you.

Without a phono input, my understanding is that you would need a line level adapter.

i actually use another rca line input and use the pre amp from my turntable with an in line booster (between turntable and 5000) and it works much better than the phono input on the 5000. i was getting a humming noise using phono input. your setup might be different though. either way my vinyl sounds awesome now!

Thank you for clearing up my question about the phono input hookup. I appreciate your taking the time. I'll go into a higher equipped model which will solve the problem.Dana M. KottCathedral City, CA

I don't know what that is. But mine works fine with RCA inputs into a very old Onkyo stereo system.

It has rca inputs for both..chech the spec page for more details. I have had the unit for more than a year and still happy.

I am not sure why you need to use the set up menu. Are there not separate inputs on the back for phono and CD? your phono preamp outputs should be connected to the CD inputs (or any other analog two channel input). You should only connect to the phono input on the AVR if you have a moving magnet cartridge and don't have a separate phono preamp.

I'm reasonably sure this came with a cable with red and white phono plugs on one end and a male pin connector to mate with the PBTR20 on the other end. My CD player that I use it with has the same red and white jacks.
