I just wanted to thank all of you who helped me with the problem I had
trying to hookup my turntable to my computer a few weeks ago (see
original post below). The problem was solved by simply connecting a 'V'
cable from the R/L Tape Rec outputs on the back of my stereo receiver
(no pre-amp was needed after all) to the "sound in" jack on the back of
my computer. No buzzing sound, No hassle, and only $10.00 spent at Radio
Shack on a 'V' cable. Thanks again.
