Do I need a tuner and or amplifier for this turntable to work?
Asked by: Ochemia
There's no need for a tuner, this turntable has a USB connection to go directly into your computer. This turntable also does not need a phono preamp the only reason to get a amplifier is if you are sending the audio from here into passive speakers, if the speakers are already powered there's no need for a amplifier.

Do I need special software to transfer music to my computer or is the software provided?
Asked by: Ian
Recording software is not included because you can use any recording software that you prefer. Proprietary software is not needed to convert the audio from vinyle to MP3 files. The user manual mentions Audacity (www.audacityteam.org) as a free software option compatible with Mac and Windows.

I've just bought a Sony CMT-SBT100 Micro Music System with Bluetooth &amp; NFC and I'd like to know if it works well with it ,and maybe tips on how can I have the best experience in using both together. I need a little help on that. Thanks
Asked by: Francisco a Reis
To set the system up. You want to take the cable that comes with the speakers and plug the 3.5mm connectors into the back of each speaker. Then locate the phono pre amp. Make sure you switch it from phono to line out. Plug the RCA connectors at the other end of the speaker cable into line out of the phono pre amp. Then power it up and you should be enjoying your records. Also there is a USB connector that can be plugged into your computer USB port and you can transfer your vinyl into your computer.
