Why not just get a *real* turntable (there are still ****loads of
them out there for sale) and run it through any inexpensive
receiver? You'll get much better results that way.

That won't get the music onto CD or MP3.

It will if you plug the receiver into the sound card. That's how I've
been doing it for years.


I use a small phono preamp that provides RIAA curve equalization and
output to the PC's sound card.


Right, same difference.

I wonder if you can even buy those little preamps anymore? Used to be
able to get them even from Radio Shack (ugh).



There are quite a few on the market, some costing hundreds. This is the
one I have.
