I imagine you've already figured this out, but this unit has no phono pre-amp. You'll have to either buy an outside pre-amp for your old turntable (better quality, usually) which in turn plugs into your receiver or buy a new turntable that has its own pre-amp and regular RCA outputs for this unit (and most others I've seen).

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

Plug in the two RCA jacks to your amp, then plug in the power supply... That's It !!! Don't forget to ground the turntable to the amp..

Kevin... I don't think you can wire a turntable directly into speakers, without some sort of amplifier/preamp between them. The signal will probably be far to weak to be usable. I hope this answers your question. Best of luck!

If receiver other devices will have the same problem. If just turntable check all connectors and ground wire. If turntable connected to separate pre amp that could also be problem.

There are lots of RCA connectors on the back of the receiver, and are all line level inputs for things like tape decks, CD players, VCRs etc.. The thing you need to know is if your old turntable used a magnetic cartridge which most of the better turntables from the late '60s up to the the early '90s did, you will need to get a phono preamp for it. They are available on Amazon for a reasonable price.

Hi Sally I connect my turntable to my stereo input and stereo goes to a sound jack in my computer. I think this is better than using the Alesis adptor.I tried one and sent it back.Try using your stereo and let me know, Doug in Carlsbad Ca.

the rca output from the turntable is low level, and would require a "phono" input jack on your stereo, which would seldom be used for other input sources. You'd only be able to connect the turntable to your stereo system with the USB cable if the stereo system has a USB input port.

I just connected one of my turntables and it will work, BUT with a very low output at speakers. You will need a preamp.

I'm not sure to be honest. That would be a question more for the manufacturer. Here's a link to the manual in PDF format. Maybe this will help? http://numark.de/sites/default/files/PT01USB_QuickStart.pdf . If you do pick up this turntable, a great add on is to get a Lepai Mini Amplifier which is around $15. Which will give you better sound adjustment options and the ability to hook up older speakers to your turntable.

Although I don't have a turntable, it does have phono (RCA) inputs for one. I'm sure you can google the manual online.

Look at the back of the set. There is an input set for "Phono." When I had a turntable, which I no longer have, this input jack sufficed on any receiver I ever owned - without a preamp. I would assume that is the case with this receiver. If you are uncomfortable without knowing for certain. I would suggest researching on the Yamaha website.

Hi,You don't need the Bellary VP130 with that turntable. I thimk the AT-LP60 doesn't need a Pre Amp. Check on that first. On the other hand, the outputs of both, the turntable and the preamp (bellari) are RCA cables. I didn't see that input on the yamaha HS5. Check on that also...Alfredo

You will need: -A receiver. It can be stereo or surround, and it doesn't need a Phono input. Normally Turntables don't have a preamp built in, so traditionally receiver's have had one input in the back with a preamp labled "Phono". This Turntable has one built in that you can turn on or off with a switch on the back, so you don't need any specific type of receiver. -Speakers. Every ear is different. Set a budget and go listen to some at a store like Tweeter or Magnolia, or better yet an independent audio store in your area. Pick the ones you like, not the ones rated highest on Amazon. Make sure that the speakers can adequately reproduce deep lows or you may find yourself wanting to add a subwoofer to compensate for this. Unfortunately, more and more pairs of speakers fail to do this as they dump larger woofers for more smaller woofers. But some brands still do this exceptionally well. Again, trust your ears, not a salesman or marketing. -Cables. This turntable includes the cables to connect it to the receiver. You will need speaker wire to connect the speakers to the receiver. Speaker wire is nothing but copper wire, which is often stranded and wound. You wont benefit from anything thicker than about 14 gauge if the speakers are next to the receiver. Longer distances may need thicker wire. And that's it.

I have a Yamaha 5750 receiver and a 1980's era Technics quartz direct drive turntable. Everything works great running through this preamp. I have the preamp running through the CD input (I listen to CD's in my Blue Ray player).

Should, There are an assortment of RCA inputs, which all my old turntables used.

Did you find a solution? I'm facing the same dilemma now. Have the turntable, trying to figure out what I need to buy to go with it and am a novice at this. Besides speakers, do you need the stereo receiver or anything else?
