As a holiday gift to me and my wife, we will be buying ourselves an Audio-Technica AT-LP120 table soon so we can begin enjoying and rediscovering my formidable vinyl collection on 33 and 45; the table will be connected to an Onkyo TX-8555 stereo receiver via the unit's PHONO inputs, but I had a couple of questions for those that may have specific knowledge about this turntable...
First of all, am I correct in stating this model DOESN'T come with a ground wire? From what I read, the "ground" is sort of built-in...is this true? Now, I also understand that the turntable has a built-in phono preamp which can be switched on or off...being that I will be plugging the RCA leads into my receiver's PHONO input, would I leave the Audio-Technica's preamp switched to LINE (essentially OFF)?
Does anyone know just how long the RCA leads are that come with this turntable? The unit will sit on top of a Bell'O audio tower rack and I'm concerned that it will be quite a far stretch to reach the back of the Onkyo receiver...
I will have further questions about setting this thing up once we get it with regard to tonearm balance, anti-skid, etc. but I will check back in with you folks once we're at that point...
Thank you, in advance, to anyone that could assist! :thmbsp:
