Hi Sally I connect my turntable to my stereo input and stereo goes to a sound jack in my computer. I think this is better than using the Alesis adptor.I tried one and sent it back.Try using your stereo and let me know, Doug in Carlsbad Ca.

if you have a 3.5mm audio cable with RCA Jacks, you can connect them from the "audio output" located on the back of the computer or from the "headphone jack" output, to your receiver audio inputs, you'll have audio. Especially if you have a good sound system speakers!!! Any equipment having an RCA jack (L&R;) you can record from to your computer via. the USB input.firefly572002@yahoo.com

I would not see why not if the turntable has RCA plugs. Mine is connected to a front PC USB portwith a 35 year old turntable attached.

I ended up throwing that one away because I needed one that sent a signal to the receiver from the computer and it does not do that. It seems to work only from a component to the computer but not out of the computer. Hope that helps.

Well i use serato with these. My mixer is a gemini. I would think as long as u have the inputs it should work. I assume u have the serato interface box.

No it doesn't, the connections are minimal in the back. But if there is such a thing as an adapter that would let you connect a turntable to an iPod dock or via a USB port, you'd be in business.

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.

Hi Don, if your stereo system supports USB in then it should work. From this link, https://docs.sony.com/release/PSLX300USB.pdf, you will find full information for connecting your turntable via USB connection. -Vincent

No. You'd need an external preamp if your receiver (or whatever device receiving the turntable output) doesn't have an internal preamp.

Sorry for the delay. I did not know the answer either so I contacted Pioneer. They said if your were using their receiver VSX 523 and wanted to connect a turntable to it, you would need an external preamp for the turntable and then connect it to an available red/white input. This is good to know as I have an older Dual turntable that I would like to connect to it. I recently bought a new Pioneer turntable but it has a preamp built in and all I had to do was to connect it to the CD input of the Pioneer AV receiver.

Yes, because of the USB capabilities, I believe this model has a pre-amp already installed in it. Some receivers have a pre-amp installed, if there is a "phono" input. Mine does not and I use the "CD" input. I haven't tried it, but I would assume you could connect the turntable directly to speakers and it would be fine.

I cannot respond to this directly. I know it works well with an SL-B2 turntable.

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).

Did you find a solution? I'm facing the same dilemma now. Have the turntable, trying to figure out what I need to buy to go with it and am a novice at this. Besides speakers, do you need the stereo receiver or anything else?

That will work if you have a phono preamplifier between the turntable & the T1 (some turntables have a built in pre - you should check that to find out). However the line-in doesn't have access to the tube buffer so only the PC will be able to use that. It's possible a USB turntable could use the USB input & then it would go through the tube buffer. Most USB TT's have a built -in pre - however they are not usually thought of as particularly high level TT's. You would also have to switch between using the PC & the TT in that case.

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.

This will work with any turntable/headshell that uses a standard mount -- but I should note that this is not a P-mount type.

From what I remember about the last century, turntables require a special input as they need some power from the receiver for the audio connection to work. And a ground. I don't think this will work even though it has aux RCA stereo inputs.

I found it fairly simple and straight forward to hookup. Run a ground wire to back of Receiver from back of turntable which is marked. Then run the rca cable from back of receiver to back of turntable. Three wires to hookup and ready to use.

The receiver does have a tuner for the radio, you can look at the pics of the front and back to see what it actually hooks up to, I'm guessing all will work but maybe the turntable.
