will this work to connect an analog turntable to a digital receiver ?

It will likely 'work' but the results may not be what you are expecting, depending on what type of 'cartridge' your turntable has. There are basically two types of 'cartridges' used with turntables (a cartridge is that part of the turntable at the end of the tone-arm that holds the needle, and actually converts the mechanical movement of the needle into an electrical signal). The first type is a ceramic cartridge, and the second type is a magnetic cartridge. Although both work, the higher quality turntables have a magnetic cartridge. The practical difference is that the ceramic cartridge puts out a higher voltage that will typically work with an 'auxiliary input' or 'line level' input without any need for pre-amplification, whereas the magnetic cartridge puts out a voltage that is closer to a 'microphone' level voltage, and requires a pre-amplifier to boost the level to the 'line level' or 'auxiliary level'. If you are using a pre-amplifier with a magnetic cartridge, then yes this will very likely work for you. If you are using a ceramic cartridge, then yes, this will very likely work for you. If you are using a magnetic cartridge without a pre-amplifier, then this will likely still work, but the sound level will be significantly reduced. I use the term 'likely' because I'm not sure of the rest of your setup.

If the turntable has rca outs, it should. ( the red and white audio jacks). Also, make sure the receiver has optical in.

Yes,it has a built in phono pre-amp and will work through either an aux,cd,or tape input. You just make sure that the turntable is on the correct setting,it also has a setting that bypasses the built in setting for use with an amp that has it's own phono pre-amp,I have an older receiver that has one built in.

Make sure the input is 5v DC (five volts, direct current) on your receiver.... If yes, it should work...

You will probably need a cable to pick up the RCA output on your turntable and terminates in a single 1/4" or XLR input for the speakers. I didn't notice an RCA input

Hey Geron, you can't use that turntable with new receivers. Older receivers had a phono preamp but not the new stuff. There is a headphone jack that you could hook up a speaker to, but I wouldn't suggest it. The jack is a large one, so cables could be an issue. I would get an inexpensive surround sound receiver to link it up. Email me at tundrausher@yahoo.com if you have more questions. Good luck.

yes it should work very well as long as the turntable has a built in preamp. just hook it up to the auxiliary of the amplifier.

This is not an integrated receiver. It is an amplifier. Likewise, you would not connect this to an integrated receiver.You will need nothing except speaker wires (obviously) to connect your speakers. However, for the turntable, you will need a phono preamp. This is not unusual; you would need a separate phono preamp for almost any modern receiver or preamp/amp combo these days as manufacturers do not include them much anymore.

No, not out of the box no modern receiver will support a turntable. Most high quality pre-amps will cost 100+ so I found this very highly rated pre-amp for a very affordable price here on amazon: ART DJPRE II Phono Preamplifier RCA Type Input and Output Switchable Low Cut Filter

Yes, it should. This will convert the analog red/white AV output from your TV to the Digital optical signal. In my case I have a small Bluetooth audio receiver with analog output connected to the AV input side and the digital output is connected to the optical connection on my stereo. It works great.

Yes that's exactly what it does. Just make sure you have another cable to run into the device from the turntable.

Hello Lobsterinthesun. I purchased one of these and it does what it needs to do. It will convert a digital audio output into an analog signal. I needed this to convert the digital output from a TV to an analog input to a PS3 unit. It will take either a Toslink digital output or a coaxil digital output and convert it to an analog output. All you would need to do is to take a set of RCA cables from the output of this unit and plug it into your receiver.

I do not think that will work... Digital audio rca cannot be split and input into the analog red and white on your receiver.

Yes, indeed. If your need was like mine (no built-in pre-amp on the turntable and no specifically dedicated phono input on your amplifier) you will find this unit to be the perfect solution to needed amplification of the turntable's output. Don't forget to hook up the ground wire as directed or you may wind up putting unwanted noise into the audio.

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

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.

I use it with digital audio out (to amplifier) don't know if it works with analog audio out

Don't quite understand what you're asking. This unit will take a digital out from something, either with optical or rca and turn it into analog, so you can use older receivers, etc
