Steelermedallion Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Does this unit require a preamp to connect to a turntable or it it not required ? This is the amp I am referencing. http://theaudiosolutions.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control4Savant Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Order something like this if you only have a phono output and you’ll be fine. If its more recent and has a stereo output youre already there. https://www.crutchfield.com/S-LXb2G7Eu4WQ/p_252PBMMB/Pro-Ject-Phono-Box-MM.html?XVINQ=GLX&awkw=75621861865&awat=pla&awnw=g&awcr=47439160225&awdv=c&awug=9005886&gclid=CjwKCAiA6Y2QBhAtEiwAGHybPaYGfwcLMRHPPsfqJtkbTcwQP80Hx5aEzJS1DmVTTwySHPAqC4_xDBoCYKsQAvD_BwE Steelermedallion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbay Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 That matrix amp, which is long discontinued, doesn't have phono preamp built in. Either a turntable with a built in preamp or an external preamp would be needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
