can I run a turntable?

there are two analog inputs, so you could attach a turntable. However, you will either need a turntable with integrated pre-amp, or buy an additional turntable pre-amp. Normal turntable outputs are very low and also are not flat. Turntable pre-amps compensate by boosting the lows. Something like this: Pyle PP555 Ultra Compact Phono Turntable Pre-Amplifier with 9V Battery Compartment to Mini Phono Preamp

Thanks for your question. You can with the addition of an external photo preamp such as the NAD PP4. This is a fantastic sounding amplifier. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud TEAC dealer.

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...

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.

I was wondering the same thing. I researched and found out that if yo buy a pre-amp to power the turntable it can be done. Receiver's in the past had the port for phono that was powered. John

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

If your turntable has 2 RCA audio out cables, then you could plug it in to an AUX input. I've done this with many old turntables and amps and it sounded great.

Hello - yes you can. In fact, that was one of the key reasons for our purchase. We connected an old turntable to this receiver so that we could listen to some records from the 50s. BTW this was a great value.

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

In general, no. The output of the turntable's cartridge (the little gadget that is actually in contact with the record) is not strong enough to drive the speakers. Another piece of electronics, called a "preamp", has to go between the two. If the turntable has an integrated preamp then this could be possible.

No, not out of the box no modern receiver will support a turntable. Most high quality pre-amps will cost 100+ so I found this very highly rated pre-amp for a very affordable price here on amazon: ART DJPRE II Phono Preamplifier RCA Type Input and Output Switchable Low Cut Filter

No, you will still need a phono preamp. If your turntable has an amp built in, then sure.

yes I believe turntable with a usb connection will work just fine. the older styled one's may not as the inputs may not be ont the system. I really like this stereo for I can play cd's and not have to change them so often. Hope this helps

There is no input for a turntable. Only 4 input for CD players, etc. You will need to buy a separate phone stage unit.

Yes and this product more than exceeded my expectations. You can hook up a turntable. It has a line in mini jack, so you'll only need a stereo mini-jack to RCA adapter. Mine has a turntable hooked up this way.

This turntable comes with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, so any speakers that can plug into those will work!

They can, but the sound/volume level would be way to low even with the radio turned up full blast. The cartridge in the turntable has a very low signal output and since your turntable does not have its own internal amplifier (very few do) its output is insufficient to power the input of the radio. Just Google " phono-preamp " and check out some of the links. You will need one of these pre-amps to beef-up the turntable cartridge's signal enough for it to be sufficient for the radio's input requirements. You just plug the turntable into the pre-amp and then connect the pre-amp to the radio. Some of the pre-amps have an additional gain/volume control so that you may further "tune" the output of the pre-amp to the required input of the radio's input terminals. It is not rocket science and pretty much everybody is capable of this simple procedure. If the pre-amp does not have this gain/volume control just follow its user guide's directions, hook it up, and go! If you read a few of the ads linked under the above search you will learn quite a bit about what is required and about the procedure. A decent phono-preamp can be purchased for under $20.00. However, if you have a high-end cartridge you may wish to spend more. It will depend on the style and type of cartridge you have, e.g. MM, MC, Decca or Sapphire. Google " Types of Phono Cartridges " and you will find links to multiple sites from there (if you are not sure of your cartridge's type). The two most common types of phonograph cartridges are moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) phono cartridges. Each of these requires a slightly different pre-amp "boost" but most pre-amps have a switch to select the type you have attached. If you aren't sure which you have just flip the selector back-and-forth to see which one sounds the best. You can't break or hurt anything by doing this. Enjoy your music! -- Lee Brown
