Hey everybody...

I'm considering buying the NUMARK TT-200 turntable. I have a Panasonic reciever that then plugs into a subwoofer and speakers. Will the RCA cables plug directly into the AUX input in the back of the reciever?

I know this sounds vague but any help would be appreciated, thanks!

AUX input to most amplifiers is a line level input -- up to 1 volt. Turntable cartridge puts out millivolts. You need an amplifier/receiver with a phono input -- it has the correct sensitivity and also applies RIAA equalisation -- or a preamp adapter. Unless, of course, this is a turntable with a built-in preamp.

I'd pop into a specialist hifi store. Or Radio Shack in US/Richer Sounds in UK.
