Home audio & video: 5.1 a/v receiver with phono input
5.1 a/v receiver with phono input
by yonan32 - 5/15/08 11:54 PMdoes anybody have a recommendation for an a/v receiver with phono input that goes well with today's high def standards (hdmi/dts-es/dolby)?
Most any new receiver

by jasondtx - 5/16/08 10:09 AM In reply to: Most any new receiver by Dan FiliceYou need a receiver with a "phono" input. If you plug it in to any old rca input on the receiver you will barely be able to hear your turntable. A phono preamp is built in to certain receivers to pre-amplify the signal before it hits the amplifiers. Try Denon or any other brand. Usually it is only found on the higher priced models because it adds a hundred or 2 to the price.
Don't post bullcrap.

TOTALLY WRONG. Not only is the signal from a turntable cartridge way too weak for regular line inputs, but it needs to have the RIAA equalization curve applied to it to make it sound correct.
Any receiver plus a phono preamp

Yes, Yamaha
by volvogirl - 11/25/09 7:10 PM In reply to: 5.1 a/v receiver with phono input by yonan32I have a Yamaha w/ phono input and my friend just got an Onkyo w/ it. Both are very good and have all the HDMI and optical inputs. My Yamaha was a lot simpler to conect than his Onkyo but the Onkyo has better graphics in the onscreen setup menu.
