Audirvana is only for playback.

Would this ADC allow me to use a digital input on my receiver instead of a phono input? Is so, I may have found my first piece of Schiit.

It was once considered a fine idea...
That's what Pure Vinyl does. Still need some sort of high gain pre-amp because Jill only takes line level outputs into it.How about applying the RIAA curve with a DSP?
It would only require a preamp to get the millivolt level of a phono cartridge output up to standard line level. But ALL vinyl playback requires RIAA EQ before it sounds right.
I've searched but I can't seem to find that thread/post. Can you give a link? Thanks.
By an astonishing coincidence, Schiit makes a product that does that. Two, actually!
I presume you currently plug in your turntable (with built-in preamp) directly into an analog input of your receiver. Why would you want to add digital encode and decode into the path? It can only degrade the input signal.So my question returns to this - Will the analog out put from a 'table with a built in preamp, sent to the analog input of the Jil and then spat out in digital format and sent to the digital input of my receiver produce music by the receivers DAC?
Yes. The only reason to get an ADC is because I want one to play my vinyl through a digital in put. I do not need one. I use the phono in put for my Pro-Ject and TN-300 'tables. I have never even thought twice about converting an album to digital for my computers but that does not mean it is not worth it for many folks. In fact, many of the records I buy now include a digital down load for your computer and portable DAP.
Thank you for your help!

Two?
Mani and ... ?

But... why? Why convert A to D then back to A? Less is more especially when it comes to audio, no?
So they can use a Digtal Audio Workstation; non-destructive editing and mastering, multiple exact replicas of passages etc. much easier than copying, cutting and splicing magnetic tape; and most output is used as digital, CDs, downloads, streaming etc. (e.g. DAB),...Why do recording studios convert analog in the form of human voices and instruments in to digital ...
