2 Line Card audio jack.
3 A turntable to play records.
4 If the amp is not built on a turntable pre-amplifier. Please note that you record from tape, then you do not need an amplifier. The amplifier is only required if youare always the recordings at low volume. Normally, the output of the turntable is not good and in some cases you may need a preamp. There is always a good idea to do a test recording and check the results.

After getting the right cables, you must connect to one side of the cable RCA jacks on the turntable and the other sideLine jack on your sound card.
