Does this pre-amp come with a power supply? I'm planning on using it in an old fashioned (no pc) set up to connect my turntable to my amp.

Yes it does, but doesn't have an on and off bottom, stays on all the time unless you unplug it, also it has it's own volume for more power, i love it

There is no "phono" input on this receiver, so it doesn't have a preamp. You can use another RCA input (I am using "Tape"), but that will only work depending on your turntable, and if it has a built-in preamp. If your turntable has a "phono" out or phono switch/setting, it will work. I have one connected and it works fine. Otherwise, you will need to buy a little $20 preamp. If you are only looking to power your speakers for a turntable, this is probably not the receiver for you.

Do you need a pre-amp to work with this - connect turntable to pre-amp, connect pre-amp to INport, connect INPort to iMac......

Make sure everything is plugged in right. If using a turntable you need a pre-amp. Not to insult. Did you install the software?

Do you have A phono-stage pre-amp hooked up between turntable and amplifier? I've got an old Electro-Accompaniet phono preamp & get lots of volume from my Oris 200 horn speakers

Yes, this is just a CD deck with pre-amp. You must plug it into an amplifier.

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).

No power need to use this device. - BUT I am not sure if it will "pass through" power for a pre-amp. I would guess yes, but am not sure.

Yes it does, however, I recommend you upgrade to their 12V 1A supply. It makes a HUGE difference in sound quality for $10. It is available here: PREMIUM High Output AC Adaptor for Technolink/TEC/TCC Phono Preamps

No. It does not require a separate power supply. Just set it up and plug it into the wall and and a preamp with a phono input.

U need a regular amp for u'r application. This a Great speaker amp,not for a turntable though.

i dont think u need a seperate pre-amp - i have a turntable and all i use is a speaker bar (large powered speakers... not the best, but for now it works) that plugs into the pre-amp, and then the preamp hooks into the record player

I grounded my turntable to the pre amp. Look. At the back of the pre amp for a ground bolt

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

No, you don't. A turntable preamp will amplify a signal from phono level to line level, so you need either a phono input on your system (which you have) or a preamp between your turntable and a line level input.

Purchase a phono - pre amp. The phono pre amp has a ground where you could connect the ground wire to the turntable ground!

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.
