I have a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon turntable and Pioneer SP-FS52-LR speakers. Will I need a pre-amp or wires to connect these items to receiver?

This is not an integrated receiver. It is an amplifier. Likewise, you would not connect this to an integrated receiver.You will need nothing except speaker wires (obviously) to connect your speakers. However, for the turntable, you will need a phono preamp. This is not unusual; you would need a separate phono preamp for almost any modern receiver or preamp/amp combo these days as manufacturers do not include them much anymore.

Greetings; You will need a phono preamplifier in between the turntable and the Dayton.

No. Your turntable output is not capable of driving the speakers. The speakers need to be connected to a preamp or receiver in order to get the proper signal. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I am sorry, but the receiver you have doesn't have pre-amp outputs. You can't add any amp to this receiver. Sorry. Some of the higher end receivers have pre-amp outputs that allow you to add external amplification.

You will at least need a receiver that is equipped with an input for a turntable. Many newer home theater receivers don't include a pre-amp stage. And if you happen to use an audiophile-grade low-output moving coil cartridge, you might even need a pre-pre-amp. Most folks use the moving magnet cartridge that comes with the table (it's decent), so a pre-amp alone with a headphone jack will give you the "line level" output you'll need to drive headphones.

You will need a receiver that will power the speakers. Also an RCA cable for the Subwoofer input.

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?

I found it fairly simple and straight forward to hookup. Run a ground wire to back of Receiver from back of turntable which is marked. Then run the rca cable from back of receiver to back of turntable. Three wires to hookup and ready to use.

Make sure you are connecting to the phono input with ground wire. If you don't have a phono input jack on your receiver, you will have to buy a pre-amp in order to hook it up through an auxiliary port. You can buy a pre-amp from Amazon for about $25. Hope this helps.

Dear customer, pre-amp is not necessary since it is an integrated amp. but you need to add a phono preamp to play turntable.

If the receiver does not have a pre-amp section you will get almost no sound from the turntable. Yes, this will work. You will need to put the turntable RCA jacks into the phono input and plug the output from this box into a input into the back of the receiver (CD, line in, or aux or something similar to that) be sure to plug in the power cube and switch the button in the front to phono.

No, you will not need a pre-amp. I have a SONY turntable hooked up to mine as ,works great!

Yes you can. This deck has a USB cable and two RCA cables. You can plug the cables into you receiver's or amplifier's line inputs. An older piece of equipment might have phono inputs. Do not connect this turntable into the phono inputs as the pre-amplified signal might damage you amplifier or receiver.

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!

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).

Yes, because of the USB capabilities, I believe this model has a pre-amp already installed in it. Some receivers have a pre-amp installed, if there is a "phono" input. Mine does not and I use the "CD" input. I haven't tried it, but I would assume you could connect the turntable directly to speakers and it would be fine.

Hey Geron, you can't use that turntable with new receivers. Older receivers had a phono preamp but not the new stuff. There is a headphone jack that you could hook up a speaker to, but I wouldn't suggest it. The jack is a large one, so cables could be an issue. I would get an inexpensive surround sound receiver to link it up. Email me at tundrausher@yahoo.com if you have more questions. Good luck.

If your turntable does not have an internal preamp, then you will need an external phono preamp prior to input into one of the audio inputs on the receiver. Decent ones are available for about $50: http://www.amazon.com/ART-II-Preamplifier-Outputs-Switchable/dp/B000AJR482
