Erwin,

Wow, quite a collection!  I have about 150-200 LPs I would like to
record.

I have an Onkyo pre-amp at home.  It has a setting for moving coil or
moving magnet.  Am I correct that the pre-amp would most likely have the
RIAA correction that you talked about?

If so, would I then connect the turntable to the pre-amp then the
pre-amp to the line-in of my Creative Audigy 2 ZS?

Thanks,
Bobby

1) When connecting a recordplayer directly to your computer you gonna
nee a pre-amplifier with RIAA correction. You could by these at Radio
Shack (15 years ago, because they don't exist anymore in Belgium), but
you can find them elsewhere if you look hard enough. By a good RIAA
pre-amplifier. The quality of your digital file will depend on it
greatly. When using a pre-amp, connect the turntable to the RIAA preamp
en the RIAA preamp to the line in of your computer (NOT the micro=
distortion).
