MitchbearYou would have to have a phone preamp between a turntable and the "line in" on this. Some new turntables have a preamp built in, but the vast majority do not. If it doesn't say specifically that it does have a preamp, it doesn't. Phono preamps are pretty readily available and are also sometimes called "phono stage amplifiers."
MitchbearMany of the TEAC turntables have built-in preamps and USB outputs for connection to a computer. The TN-300 is probably the most popular and a great TT.
