Im looking for a preamp/equalizer for a turntable I am adding to my home audio system. Will this work as a preamp also?

Definitely avoid Audiosource. I ended up buying a DBX 215 graphic EQ. I've used DBX equipment in the past and it's solid professional stuff. The 215 is a 15 band EQ which is designed for a rack system and for musical instruments but is slim and small enough to fit in with your home sound system. The only adjustment you'll need are 4 plug adapters that you can get from Radio Shack with an RCA female input from your stereo to a male standard guitar output. They're inexpensive, only a few dollars. I've had DBX for a few years now with excellent results. No distortion, just excellent professional sound quality. I bought it off of Amazon. You might have to go to the musical instrument section on Amazon to find it. It does boost the volume and sound but whether it would act as a good preamp I'm not sure. My system is disc player to EQ to amp. I haven't used my turntable is years. Good Luck

Nope, sorry J. no preamp here. It is a good equalizer though and serves my needs. The only company I know of that makes a seperate phono preamp is NAD. They make good equipment and I think they have a budget model. I think their address is www.nad.com.

This turntable model has no pre amp. Therefore it needs a receiver with phono input which provides the necessary boost. Usually only the pricier receivers have this option nowadays. I had to purchase a Denon in the $800-1000 range to get that. Separate preamps are available from Amazon that connect between phono player and aux input however. Read reviews on those.

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

This preamp takes the input from the turntable and makes the signal compatible with inputs to amps that don't have a phono input. So, if you plug it into a CD input it should work just fine. It is analog, so it is up to your receiver (in your case the sound bar) to figure out what to send to the sub - which it should be able to do.

If the turntable is plugged into your pre amp first then go to this Pyle amp, then I think it should work. Usually a turntable has different input power to the amp and doesn't work right if you plug the turntable directly to the Pyle amp (even though the RCA jacks are the same).

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.

Look at the back of the set. There is an input set for "Phono." When I had a turntable, which I no longer have, this input jack sufficed on any receiver I ever owned - without a preamp. I would assume that is the case with this receiver. If you are uncomfortable without knowing for certain. I would suggest researching on the Yamaha website.

If your TT42 version has the phono preamp (there are two versions of the TT42, one with and one without), then yes. Otherwise you will need to install a phono preamp on the turntable output. Definitely worth it if space is a premium in your room. We use it as the sound for our living room tv. Right now, I'm streaming audio off my server. Definitely worth the purchase. IMHO. Our great room runs a full Marantz home theater setup (speakers excepted). Been a fan of Marantz for long time. Right price for what you get.

There are lots of RCA connectors on the back of the receiver, and are all line level inputs for things like tape decks, CD players, VCRs etc.. The thing you need to know is if your old turntable used a magnetic cartridge which most of the better turntables from the late '60s up to the the early '90s did, you will need to get a phono preamp for it. They are available on Amazon for a reasonable price.

Of course you can connect a turntable to this amp. That is what I have done. However, you need to first connect the turntable to a pre-amp (or soundstage) to boost the signal from phono level to line level. You can get a pre-amp for $20 or even less. No need to spend a lot on this component.

You can use it with anything that has a "audio line out". Google connecting a turntable to audio amp.

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...

Hi, I think you meant receiver or integrated instead of straight amplifier. If you connect to a Auxiliary input or tape in etc. you would need a Phono pre-amp (step up transformer) then use the chassis screw to ground the turntable.

Hi Ann, you need an amplifier. You can't directly connect this on a turntable. -Vincent

Yes. I added a pre-amp to my turntable. It works very well. Highly recommended.

No. You need a pre amp for a turntable in addition to an amp (which is this product )

With this turntable you could have almost any kind of setup. It has a built in pre-amp. Meaning you could use this on a bookshelf system if thats what you have. I myself have a mid 90's Technics receiver that I ultimately route through my Sony 7.1 receiver which has no turntable pre-amp built in. My room is set up strange so I have large RCA cables going from the Technics (that the turntable is plugged into) into the Sony. Sound confusing? Dont let it be...whatever you may have, be it micro system or whatever, as long as you have an open AUX,PHONE,whatever STEREO input, you'll be fine. Just make sure if said system doesnt have a built in phono pre-amp, you switch the pre-amp on the turn table on and you're good to go
