Can I hook a cd player or turntable up to this little bad boy, without going through my laptop?

Yes, it has aux inputs. (1 set) The phono though, should have it's own preamp. I don't have a phono so I have never done it.

Hi, you can hook up a cd player just fine however almost all turntables require additional amplification. Amazon sells an ART phono preamp that would take your turntable and then route it into your TP30. The TP60 which is an even badder bad boy has two inputs so you could hook them up together all the time if you wanted and more amplification. Most old school stereo amplifiers have phono in jacks that have dedicated phono preamp circuits inside - these usually come on only the pricier models now on new home theater amps. I have had experience with two toppings now- they sound great and look really nicely built. Just know if you want the tp30 to crank you need some really efficient speakers (think klipsch) or you're looking for decent sound in a small room.

Yes, this has RCA analog line-in and USB digital in. There is Mark II version of this amp available which can support USB audio from Andriod.

You can hook any pre-amplified sound source (CD, tape, mp3 player) but a record player (phono) usually needs a preamplifier like this: Pyle PP999 Phono Turntable Pre-Amp

Yes you can hook this unit up to almost any device that has audio outputs - TVs, MP3 players, CD Players. Either using RCA cords or mini jacks. It does it all.

Yes, there's a 3.5mm jack on the back that you can connect a proper cable (likely with RCA phono plugs on the other end) to connect to your disk player or stereo. I don't know whether direct connnecting a turntable will give you enough signal without a pre-amplifier. Good luck!

I don't actually know but I think you need to just buy a turntable and amplifier and hook a CD player to your setup. I'm a granny too, but I think this is more state-of-the-art as it has an Ipod dock. I think you can find a better system for your needs.

It takes RCA and 1/8" trs, so there's no way to go right in from USB. You'd need a separate DAC if USB is your only option.

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.

You can hook it up to a laptop but NOT directly. Gotta get a special wire that connects to a laptop to a radio/amplifier that connects to the speakers

Yes and this product more than exceeded my expectations. You can hook up a turntable. It has a line in mini jack, so you'll only need a stereo mini-jack to RCA adapter. Mine has a turntable hooked up this way.

Just find an open USB port and plug in. No special software needed (you'll use the volume control on the desktop).

Yes! Use the USB connection to hook up to your computer, and connect a set of powered speakers to the RCA outputs on back of unit.

Alas, no. I also have an old turntable, and there is no appropriate connection to the receiver.

Yes you can hook it up to a computer by buying a audio Y adapter (3.5mm mini plug to two RCA plugs) and these are available in different lengths up to about 16ft i think. But no i don't think you'll have any problems shaking the apartment with it. The subs amp is too weak to do that.

This hooks to your computer via USB, then you need RCA's to connect to your mixer, keyboard, etc...

No only *usb* to computer! There are no midi or other audio inputs and outputs bro.

Yes I believe you can. It has an auxiliary plug, so it can connect to your laptop, iphone/ipod, and I would guess a CD player as well.

Hi Acousticstrings, There is no input/output jack to a cd player or other device. - Jerome

It looks like you should be able to. There are audio "in" jacks (1red & 1 white) on the back of the unit. There are also a couple of USB ports on the front of the unit but I don't know if turntables are using them now. It is a nice system with lots of power, I like mine!
