It doesn't have to be a preamp, does it? If you want to digitize LPs then you're looking for a high quality ADC. I recorded over 1,500 LPs with a Korg MR-2000S digital recorder at 1 bit/5.66 MHz and then used their software to convert each LP as a single file into 24/96. I tested with 24/192 but really couldn't hear the difference. Then, with a program called VinylStudio you can do a lookup on Discogs to get (if possible) the cover art, track times and track titles. The Korg is no longer being made but is available as either used or NOS. An alternative would be the Tascam DA-3000 which has comparable specs. Edit: I had the Korg connected to the monitor loop of my preamp, at the time an Audio Research LS-27. The turntable output had already been through an Audio Research PH-5 phono stage to boost from MC to MM and for RIAA equalization.

I hear you. Q&A was a great idea, but turned into a place where people who were unable to help themselves - looked for help. In retrosepect, it could be renamed as "Let me Google that for you." Cheers, Stephen

You're replying to a post from 2018.

Shouldn't this be in the Q&A section? In any event, why doesn't somebody just try it and then we'll all know.

Time keeps on ticking - into the future...

Dunno.

RIAA has nothing to do with CDs.

Dunno.

Obviously, the manufacturer is the only person who can answer that. And, seriously? Wave soldered board repair is for experts.

Likely all obsolete by now. Dude, get an Alienware laptop and some decent wireless headphones.

A center channel is generally used with a movie setup. A stereo setup will favor a 2 channel setup.

Why would anyone want to do this?

Apparently an answer was found on a different forum where Italian is more prevalent.

To do what?

Dunno.
