Hi everyone. I have been trying to get into vinyl for a while now and am having a hard time figuring out how to set up everything. It seems like terminology is wishy-washy and everything and depends on who you're talking to. I have purchased a Turntable, a Technics SL-1950 it has a cartridge with it and I plan on replacing it with another. I can understand the tonearm, cartridge and turntable(obviously) aspect. But.
I am getting very confused and mildy frustrated with what comes after. The phonostage - is this the pre-amp? or something else? Also, i've seen phonoamp which I'm assuming to be the same as a pre-amp. What does the pre-amp go to? The reciever? then to the speakers? or what.
I feel like I'm running in circles. Does it go like this: TT>pre-amp(phonostage????)>receiver>speakers? Please help!!
