Yes the first link is for a phono "board" for a specific preamp. All the Cambridge Audio and Pro-ject stuff is available with regular US voltage versions. They are extremely well-known and respected.

The preamps that I list are far from "the fancy ones". These are all entry-level units. I wouldn't even consider using a $20 preamp. I have owned the Parasound amp it is quite decent. I bet you can find a used one for $75 or so. I have also listened to the Nad and the Pro-ject and they're all good. ...

Koz, Are you honestly suggesting that Radio Shack is the only place to buy a phono preamp?! I wouldn't buy an electronic turd from that mall hell of a store.

I'm trying to make this totally portable so that one will not work besides it weighing like 15 lbs. N...

Thanks WC. I'm trying to find a freeware audio editor so my girlfriend can do some interview recording with her Powerbook. Do you know of one that will do the following: provide simultaneous recording of two mono tracks while using a compressor on the inputs, mac compatible, free.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to insert the compressor plug-in as an insert. I want to compress AS I record and not apply compression after I record. I give up trying to figure this simple process out and I'm used to using Logic Pro!
