I want to use these speakers with an Audio Technica turntable and a Lepai amp. If I buy all 3 items, do I need to buy any additional cables? Thanks.

You'll need cables to connect the speakers to the amp. The turntable has it's own cables. It's a nice setup, you'll be happy with the quality of the sound.

You'll need speaker cables from the amp to the speakers. You'll need audio cables from the turntable to the amp. Not sure if those come with your turntable, but neither come with the speakers. You may also need a phono pre-amp depending on your turntable.

You need to find the output of the turntable, then something that will convert it to av so you can plug it into the reciever. I use my phone exchange with this setup and bought a headphone to stereo av cable and that works.

yea, you have 3 external outputs: headphone jack, RCA output, and L/R for speakers. i do recommend an amp or powered speakers because the volume is pretty low, and also you dont get a lot of treble when playing your vinyl.

Sorry, I'm a newbie at home theater stuffs, but why do we need a separate "subwoofer cable"? Won't the speaker wires work? I'm using a HTiB and they all use one type of speaker cables, even the subwoofer. I'm just curious as I'm about to get this system and have to learn how to set it up with a receiver. Thanks.

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.

Here is an excellent article to help identify what you have and outline what you need: http://turntablelab.com/pages/beginners-guide-to-turntables (What you're asking is covered in the section "2.1 Simplified Turntable Setup with Active Speakers")

This is an xlr connector cable designed to fit between high grade microphones and a pre-amp or power amp. No power or speaker I've ever seen is fitted with these connectors. Simple answer is "no" they won't do what you want. You need a basic two conductor cable of the right gauge to handle the power level you will use to drive your speakers.

What type of cable(s) do I need to hook up the audio to an amplifier Thanks Jellik

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.

These speakers are powered, which means you can connect them directly to a computer/laptop without first connecting them to a receiver/amplifier. Unlike computer speakers, you will need to purchase an audio cable separately. If you only have one speaker, you will want a cable that is 1/8" (3.5mm) TRS to single 1/4" TS or XLR because that cable will combine right and left stereo channels so you hear both through the single speaker. If you have two speakers, you will want a cable that is 1/8" (3.5mm) TRS to dual 1/4" TS or dual XLR.

Just use speaker cable to hook up to receiver/amplifier. Speakers draw power from amplifier so no power cable needed.

cables needed are a microphone cable, midi cable, and a output cable to your amp or p.a. system (just a instrument cord 1/4 jacks). there is an extra output jack for stereo, if you like to use.

how do I connect these speakers to a turntable that has a RCA connection. Do I need to splice that cable and use speaker wire for the connection? I also just found out I will need to get an amp.

Your turntable should already have an output cable and (usually) a ground wire. This preamp includes the cable needed to go to your receiver or amp, as well as a mini-Y adaptor to convert this cable to plug into a computer line input.

Hey, I am buying speakers for a friend who has the same turntable - did you ever find a good solution / speakers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You only need one cable per speaker. The cable is connected between the amplifier (or mixer& combo) to the speaker cabinet. Typically, each amp (or mixer/amp) has stereo output (L/R) therefore you will need two cables for the two speakers.
