And this is the fourth video in a six part video series that I’ve created that’s aimed at helping you properly set up your turntable so you can begin buying and playing your records. • Finally, right? We’re almost there. • [INTRO] • Now if you were with me in the last video, then you know that we covered how to go about changing your record player’s stylus. But in this video, I wanted to focus on how you can go about connecting your turntable to your integrated amplifier or your external phono preamp. • So that’s what we will be discussing in today’s video. • First, let’s go over how to connect your turntable to a receiver or integrated amplifier if you have a turntable WITH a BUILT-IN phono preamp. You can connect your RCA cable that’s coming from your record player directly into the CD or Auxiliary (AUX) input of your receiver or integrated amplifier. • After you connect the RCA cable properly, don’t forget to securely connect the ground wire too. • Now, if you are using a turntable WITHOUT a built in phono preamp (such as the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon that we’ve been using in these videos), then you have two options. • The first is very easy. If you already have an integrated amplifier with a built in PHONO stage, simply connect the RCA cables to the PHONO input and securely connect the ground wire, as well.Now, if you want to use an external phono preamp, like the Vincent PHO-8, for example, then there are a few additional steps you’ll need to take. But the end result is often better quality sound and more control over your sound than simply using an amplifier’s built-in PHONO section. • Before getting started, it’s important to quickly mention how this will work. First, you’re going to have to connect your turntable to your external phono preamp. Then, you’ll be connecting your phono preamp to your receiver or integrated amplifier. • Because of this, you’ll need two pairs of RCA cables to properly complete this setup. • To begin, you need to attach the RCA cables and ground wire to the RCA output and grounding post of your turntable. • Now, take the other end of the RCA cable and connect it into your external phono preamp’s RCA input. Then, connect the other end of the ground wire to the back of the external phono preamp. • Next, take your second set of RCA cables and connect them to the RCA outputs on your external phono preamp. • Next, we’re going to need to connect the other end of the RCA cable to the receiver or integrated amplifier. • So, on the back of your receiver or integrated amplifier, find an unused input, like the CD input or the AUX input for example, and connect the RCA cables. • Just remember—when you’re using an external phono preamp—do NOT connect the RCA cables to the PHONO input. You only do that when there’s no phono preamp involved in your system’s connection path—be it an external phono preamp like the Vincent PHO 8 or the Schitt Mani, or a preamp that’s built into the turntable itself. • ——- • Intro Music: Far Away (Sting) by MK2 • Background Music: Erykah by Otis McDonald
