Low Level Turntable unput !

[mcwho]

I am considering between 3 recievers...

Denon AVR-2807
Yamaha RV-2600
NAD T773

In particulat, I cannot find anything that states for examplle that the NAD has a low level millivolt input for a low level Turntable.

All is see in the specs are that there are 3 RCA analog inputs.

In addition, while I am at it do the other two support a Turntable.

Not sure if the others do turntable input, or any of the three, but if they don't specify it specifically, it doesn't. And, it needs to specify the levels.
The RCA inputs are most likely for other inputs.

You don't necessarily need a phono input on your receiver - you can always buy a phono pre-amp or if you are in the market for a new turntable, buy one with a built-in phono pre-amp.

A friend that owns the Yamaha RXV-2500 had very favorable things to say about its phono stage-he is running a Thorens TD125 Mk II, SME 3009 II arm and an Audio Technica cartridge (don't recall the exact model). I would guess that the RXV-2600 has the same or very similar phono stage. As for your options, the NAD does not appear to have a built-in phono stage (I reviewed the manual at the NAD site and could not find one referenced), and the Denon and Yamaha will only have enough gain for moving magnet cartridges-if you have a moving coil cartridge, you will need an outboard phono preamp or a step-up transformer. Apologies in advance if you already had this background info. Happy hunting!
