Default receiver and system questions (newbie!)



Most receivers that have phono inputs are for magnetic cartidges only.
Some (e.g. the Yamaha R-900) also have moving coil capability. It
doesn't sound as though you currently have a turntable. When you
decide to get one make sure the cartridge you get is matched to the
phono input section of whichever receiver you get.

Do you know yet which turntable and cartridge are you considering?


He'd be crazy to consider anything but a modestly priced cart for the
system he has. It would be like putting a Ferrari engine in a Chevy
Nova.

Those are either MM, moving iron or the high output MC.
