Hi guys,

This is the turntable I have:

[Sony PS-LX250H]

It says it has a built-in phono pre-amp. Does this mean I still need to
run
it through something like this:

[Radio Shack RIAA phono preamp]

Before I can connect it to a generic (non phono) line input like aux in?

It would appear that you do *not* need an external phono
preamp if Sony claims that the turntable has one built-in.

Alas, the writing of the "specifications" seems to be hijacked
by cluless marketing people. No mention of line-level (or ANY)
output, But "Fully-automatic operation" (whatever that means?)
is important enough to repeat twice in succession. :-(
Perhaps that is the difference between "Sonystyle" and "Sony"?
