SS: Re: technics linking

[Rob Cooper]

Hi Jamie, Excuse my ignorance here - but I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on hooking up my technics 1210,s into my p.c. Is it as simple as going into the line-in output? Yeah - friad you do need a pre-amp of some sort. The output from a deck is tiny, and a "phono" input on a mixer, amplifer, home hifi, etc will bring it up to a decent level.   If you know someone with a mixer, you would be better to go through that route as this usually brings the highest quality sound, and gives you a little bit of control over the level.   You will be surprised though at how many home hi-fi's have a phono input - and the majority of these have line outputs.... or headphone outputs - which can be used as well.   If you cant get any joy - get the vinyl in the post and I'll pop it on the web for you ;-)   Rob
