Hi,
I've recently purchased a turntable as I've been collecting vinyl for a while and had nothing to play it on.
I've got an old Denon PMA-280 integrated amp from my younger days, CD player, speakers and they all fit together well and play well.
The turntable is a new thing for me and I've done a lot of reading and got nicely confused. I've got a ProJect DC Carbon (picked it up cheap as a starter turntable to learn on), only I don't know if I need or would benefit from a phono stage/pre-amp. My Denon amp has a built-in phono stage, but some articles say that an external (modern) phono stage (e.g. rega Fono) will still make a difference, but I can't find anything definitive to say DC Carbon + Denon is good or DC Carbon + Phono Stage + Denon is better (or even works or how best to connect it!).
Any pointers will be gratefully received,
Many thanks,
Grant
