...to listen and record vinyl?

Ive seen a RIAA Curve in Audio Software (Like Adobe Audition). You would need to run your turntable through a audio interface via USB into a computer  through the software. Then Output back to your system. I have experiment with this with click/ pop remove and Equalization. I always use my phono preamp in the line so I had no need to the RIAA Curve. I did not try it.

Take a look at the Gold Note PH10..
An excerpt from their info below..

THE FIRST PHONO STAGE WITH 2 INPUTS AND 6 EQ CURVES

PH-10 is an ultra-versatile phono preamplifier that offers unique features,
including EQ CURVES, LOAD and GAIN adjustments: a fully analogue design
engineered exclusively with high quality coils, capacitors and
resistors.

PH-10 is controlled via knob and display using a sophisticated
micro-controller to select the functions through our custom firmware
that is loaded on a micro SD  VAdedicated flash memory and can be updated
easily via PC. The micro-controller is separated and independent from
the audio signal path to guarantee always clear and pure sound.

Once the tonearms are connected, PH-10 can be set with 4 different GAIN
levels [-3dB, 0dB, +3dB, 6dB] to match precisely the output level of any
MM or MC cartridge.

The perfect setup is guaranteed with 9 different LOAD options [10Ω, 22Ω,
47Ω, 100Ω, 220Ω, 470Ω, 1000Ω, 22KΩ, 47KΩ] that will let you adjust the
preamp to match it with a large number of cartridges in a quick, easy
way.

Thanks for the answers. (I was unavailable for a while and couldn't get back to - and forgot about this.)


I was actually asking for a friend. He's trying to use a tt without a phono amp. He may just end up buying a $10 thrift shop receiver.
