Record player w. integrated preamplifier

Turntables with integrated preamplifiers have the advantage that you do not need an additional device for use with your stereo system without a phono input. As the phono amplifier is integrated into the record player, you can connect it to a high-level input on your system just like a CD player.
Without this turntable preamplifier, you will need an external device (phono preamplifier) to preamplify the low output currents of a pickup if there is no phono input on the power amplifier
