You need a step-up device with a turntable, which is why the phono input on a stereo receiver/amp is unique from the other inputs... It boosts the signal from a turntables phono cartridge. Therefore it's best to run a tape output from your receiver/amp to your S900, just as if it was a digital cassette recorder. -Howie -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
