Can I use it just to play old vinyl records only?

I only play old vinyl records on mine. It works beautifully with a few added modern hook ups being the main difference between old player and new one.

No, it will play any vinyl. Old or new. Vinyl is vinyl. The player can't tell the difference.

Of course. That's all I use it for myself. You'll want a nice pair of headphones or speakers, as the built-in speakers are understandably weak

Yes you can run your turntable. BTW, be careful when you purchase this item. I read many reviews and they are for the most part correct. The sound is not that great and it has some distortion.

I think that you can. The unit does not have specific jacks designated as turntable but it has Aux inputs. This should work.

As long as it has line level inputs, you should be able to use a turntable. Since these inputs are not labeled 'phono' you will need a pre-amplifier for your turntable if it does not have one built-in.

Maybe it's possible but this is a phono preamp,designed to amplify the low output of a turntable.It just happens to have a USB port which allows the transfer of vinyl to digital.

I bought mine to use with old records. The regular size LP's on the bottom, then 78's for the middle and 45's for the top....

You can use it with anything that has a "audio line out". Google connecting a turntable to audio amp.

Im also wondering the same thing, if there is a simpler version of just listening to old vinyls on your pc speakers

My vinyl to pc capture was pre hdmi. I used rca to pc audio input. Software must have vinyl clean up feature.outcome is not high quality, but provided a clean retro sound on cd for a friend who's father recorded the album for her. sorry, HDMI audio in from rca...haven't tried. Maybe Audicity could help

If your record player has a 3.5mm audio out then it should be able to output sound. Be advised that this device does not have volume control, so if your record player doesn't have it's own it may not be of much use to you.

The unit is able to play back cassettes and CDs (originals and those recorded on it) through a receiver. It can not play vinyl. If recording of vinyl on the unit is needed, turntable will need to be run to a receiver/amplifier and the signal sent via the "line out" to the 222SLmk.

Yes, you can. You might need an extra cable depending on your receiver, but they're pretty easy to come by. The Audio Technica record player sounds much better on my receiver.

It's supposed to play 78's, so I don't see why not. I have only recorded 33's so far and have had no problems.

You can but you will need an inline turntable amplifier. Otherwise it will be too quiet, the input for it is not amplified in the receiver.

Hello, yes you can use it like the old phonograph, I have used mine a lot since receiving it and have only used it to play records and it does that well.

No, you must have a receiver to play it. It is worth buying a receiver, though, as this is the best turntable for the price. Many second hand stores have cheap receivers with phone inputs. Good luck!
