What if my reciever has a phono conection, would I still need a preamp.

You should not need a pre-amp if you have a PHONO input on your receiver. That input is usually amped to RIAA specs and will play your signal from your magnetic cartridge. If you find that the sound output from your turntable is very low, you will need a pre-amp. If your turntable has one built-in, turn it on. Otherwise just buy a stand alone pre-amp and hook your turntable into it and then the pre-amp into your receiver.

You can connect it directly, but a pre-amp could help. The sound is pretty clean as is.

If your stereo doesn't have a phono input to plug it into, you will need a preamp.

Yes it should be. I believe your player has phono/red & white rca cable coming from the back. These will plug in just fine. The amplifier has a built-in equalizer so There's no need for a preamp as someone may have stated.

You have to run all preamps through the aux input. The phono section already has a 'preamp' board built in. If you plug it in to the phono jacks, it will probably give a massive about of impedence and feedback.

There's no Phono input, so that implies you need a separate pre-amp, though who knows, maybe it does have sensitive enough input.The manual is almost impossible to comprehend, and unit's routing is really confusing, keep that in mind.

Not really. Hard to find one with a proper phono input these days. Basically means you need a phono preamp to apply the right EQ to the phono signal before going to any of the inputs on this receiver. There are affordable preamps, about $50, I think.

Nope. No preamp needed for this model. You can definitely use the USB inputs, but even the analog (RCA) output on this table can plug into any line-level input on a receiver. It has it's own built in phono preamp in addition to the USB out.

Dave there is not a dedicated Phono input. If you want to hook up a turntable you would need to get a pre-amp. I don't think they are very expensive.

i do not show that this receiver has a phono input. so the answer would be no.

No. If you want to connect a turntable that doesn't have a built in pre-amp, you will need an outboard pre-amp.

It will not work without a phono preamp. The output of the phono cartridge is to low. If you purchase a phono preamp and purchase some adapters you could make it work.

You'll need a phono preamp, pro-ject makes several. The phono box MM works just fine.

No you don't need a phono pre-amp. Just connect your turntable pickup direct to the TX-8255 phono input, it comes with the RIAA equalizer built in. That's the beauty of this receiver, it will give your old LP's new life... The ground wire in your turntable is to be connected to the ground nut on the back of the 8255 to reduce hum noise picked up by the stylus magnets from the motor and surroundings.

This preamp takes the input from the turntable and makes the signal compatible with inputs to amps that don't have a phono input. So, if you plug it into a CD input it should work just fine. It is analog, so it is up to your receiver (in your case the sound bar) to figure out what to send to the sub - which it should be able to do.

you will need an amp/receiver, make sure that the model you elect will accommodate a turntable or you will need a phono-preamp as well.

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.
