I don't know if it is too late, But if you buy the UK model - it has a phono input - that's one of the reasons I bought it.

No there is not. You have to get a phono stage and then hook into one of the free analog in puts.

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.

i actually use another rca line input and use the pre amp from my turntable with an in line booster (between turntable and 5000) and it works much better than the phono input on the 5000. i was getting a humming noise using phono input. your setup might be different though. either way my vinyl sounds awesome now!

I think you need a receiver with a PHONO input, this receiver does not have one. Only the more expensive ones have that input.

There are several ways. If the receiver has a phono imput (and Yamaha phono inputs are some of the best on the planet!! -- that's how I would go.) use that with RCA plugs. If no phono input, and you want to use rca plugs (analog) -- there is a switch which activates the turntable's internal phono preamp, you can use the auxiliary input (aux.). Finally, you can use a (digital) coaxial cable. The turntable also has a digital output. So you can take your pick.

Dear Mr. Lee:I decided to go up a notch to a Technic 1200 turntable.What are these other items; are they replacement items I can buy later? What function do they do?Shure M97xE High-Performance Magnetic Phono Cartridge Shure SFG-2 Stylus Tracking Force Gauge Also, a friend gave me a pair of bose $300 speakers for my PC. I think I want to pair this Technic turnable with a bigger Bose system, suggestion here?

Well when I was looking for a receiver I asked the same question to a tech who said to consider Yamaha as an authority in sound reproduction as they are known for best choice for musicians from keyboards to speakers they are the best and so it shows the same high quality in their receivers. I purchased a 7.1 reciver and I am very happy with the sound quality. Hope this helps

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).

We have successfully plugged a turntable into this receiver, but a phono preamp was required. The one we used was about $20, so no big deal. Works great, sounds great.

This receiver doesn't have a PHONO input. You would need an add-on phono preamp to use this receiver with older turntables. Some modern turntables connect with USB or have a built-in phono preamp and could be used directly with this receiver. Search Amazon for "phono preamp"

Hi Folks,I just purchased the Pioneer Elite VSX-31 but I am most likely taking it back to buy the VSX-1021. The 31 has very limited network capability and the i-phone app is weak as well. I also couldn't find a way to increase the base response. I am also considering the RX-V671 from Yamaha. It comes out next Month and has many more features. Has anyone looked at the RX-V671.Thanks,chuckp

You will need to use a preamp with this receiver, there is no phono input. You can buy a phono preamp starting at about $20. If you don't use a phono preamp, the sound will be very quiet and you'll have to crank the sound all the way up to hear it at all. Some turntables have a phono preamp built in, in which case you won't need one.

I have a YAMAHA RX-V663 , 7.1 amp that I am happy with.( this model has probably been replaced by now.)

This is a phono preamp, what you use if your preamp or receiver does not have a phono input, its for your turntable. The accessory input can be used if you don't have a sufficient number of inputs on your preamp/receiver, but there's only one extra input beyond the phono.

Sorry, but I was NOT happy with the Pioneer unit, and returned it for a Yamaha. My advice: Get a Yamaha! I have 2 now, and they work flawlessly.
