Looks like lots of older turntables that have the same issue.  There are several of these preamps available.

Good Luck!

PS - Weird that Sony would give you poor advice!

Subject: [dba-Tech] Am I S.O.L.?

When we bought our new house I bought a receiver because the house had
surround sound built in.  Works great!

 

Recently I tried to hook up my old record player (Pioneer PL12D) to the
receiver, but the sound is clear but faint. 

 

I called Sony and was told that the player is analog, but all the audio
inputs to the receiver (STR-DH550) are digital. So It won't work.

 

Is that true?  Am I S.O.L. with this phonograph/receiver combo? 

 

I got a lot of records boxed up in the garage that I'm interested in hearing
again.

 

TIA

 

Rocky
