I recently got all nostalgic for my old LPs. So I pulled out my trusty old turntable, replaced the cartridge and then remembered that neither my two year old HK or three year old Yamaha receivers have a built-in phono preamp. My old Onkyo does, but I don't have room nor do I want to put two receivers on the rack. So I went out and spent a wopping $25.00 (or something like that) on a phono preamp - guaranteed to bring to life your old LPs. Well that was a load of BS. I had to turn the HK's volume all the way up to get mediocre sound from the turntable. I swapped in the Onkyo just to make sure I wasn't crazy, and sure enough there was the sound I craved. So what preamp should I buy and what should it cost to get good quality sound from my LPs/turnatable through the HK535 receiver. Thanks.
