Connect 78 rpm turntable to Vinnie Rossi L2i SE amp?


Hi, this is a very niche question and I'm wondering if anyone has advice: my wife, a filmmaker, needs to play some old 78 rpm records in order to decide which to digitize for a new project. The audio system is great -- built around a Vinnie Rossi L2i SE integrated amp -- but the setup is digital only and lacks a phono stage. The Vinnie Rossi stage costs $3500 and is supposed to be great but way out of her budget.  I know we could opt for one of those suitcase record players from our childhoods but I'm hoping for a solution that's better quality and ideally can be run thru the audio system.  I should add that I know nothing about turntables, so please be gentle!

You plug in the RCA cables from the table to the RCA inputs to the amp. Since that table has a phono stage you will not need to do anything else!

@jasonbourne71 Thanks much! The OP would still need a phono preamp. For under 500 bucks he can get the whole Kit and Kaboodle brand new! What you think?

I doubt that the OP ( a self- admitted novice ) wants a used 50 year old turntable from Ebay.
