what I could tell you for the experience that I bought the merchandise it's a very good merchandise You do almost anything on it what the price that they have you cannot beat that

yes it should work very well as long as the turntable has a built in preamp. just hook it up to the auxiliary of the amplifier.

It does not have turntable pre-amps. But if your turntable has regular line outputs, no problem.

I realize this is an ancient question. You'll need to plug your turntable into an appropriate preamp, then this would work as you describe.

I do not have turntable, but there is a phono input to the receiver. I would think most all turntables would connect up to that without a pre-amp being needed...

Hooking this unit to your phono input will result in RIAA EQ being applied twice to the signal. You will get the boost but the sound will be terrible. You'd be also running the risk of saturating that input and damage it. The same company sells a MM/MC preamp for slightly more. I'd buy and use that instead.

Hello, the outputs are RCA and no there isn't a pre amp. This is a basic turntable but a trip to Radio Shack for an RCA to 3.5 male adapter easily allows you to record your vinyl to your computer.

You can't adjust the volume/gain on this amp.You have to connect it to a receiver or preamp that controls the volume.

If the unit has a usb, it has its own preamp. I returned this item, the platter is to small for Lp's causing wobble and skip.

This turntable should have a pre amp built in. If it doesnt you will need it. I have the audio technica lp 120 and the pre amp on that is fine

I think that if your record player has a pre-amp in it and a USB out, you could.

Hi, Michael... I haven't played any records since I had this reciever until I read your e-mail. It took me a couple of minutes to coax my ancient turntable into playing, but it did play a record just fine... I turned the volume up to about 22 and it sounded great, and I don't have a pre-amp in my system. I hope it helps and if you buy this receiver, I think you'll be happy...we've enjoyed ours and have had no problems with it. We're not real serious audiophiles, but it does sound very nice on our CDs and radio use. Good luck...best regards... Doug in Niceville, FL

you are not answering the question. phono, not phone(headset jack). Does it have a pre-amp so it will take a record player with a low impedance cartridge?

NO!You cannot connect speakers directly to the preamp.A preamp gives you a strong enough audio signal to feed to an amplifier.You use it to connect your turntable to your sound card.Then, I think you can play "records" through the computer's speakers by way of software such as WMP or similar.I have only used it to create MP3s, music CDs through intermediary software, to make copies of the vinyl records.You do not want to play the records through the computer's speakers, anyway. Every time you play the record you are wearing it out more.It is best used to make copies of the records, then play the digital copy for listening to.

Purchase a phono - pre amp. The phono pre amp has a ground where you could connect the ground wire to the turntable ground!

It depends on how/where it will be used. I use this record player when cooking or relaxing and I find the sound to be clear and the volume to be adequate. But if the record player will be used when guests are over or when other things are going on, the speakers might not be loud enough. In that case, an amp/speakers would be appropriate. It is a very good record player and it looks nice. I totally recommend it.

Yes. A record player (turntable) that uses a cartridge with a stylus that generates electricity via a moving magnet (or moving coil) requires a separate pre-amp (with RIAA/NAB equalization) for the phono circuit before plugging into a line level input such as on this unit.

You will need a pre-amp, when I first got this I got a Music Hall PA1.2 MM/MC Phono Pre Amp. So RCA cables from the turntable go into the pre-amp then the pre-amp feeds into your receiver/amp then out into you speakers. Everything has been great and I'm really happy with my purchase, you may want to get another cartridge as backup or to replace the one it comes with. I have one just for backup and have found the one that comes with it works great. I didn't have to buy anything else.
