A:AnswerThe Dell Inspiron 3030 Desktop does not include a dedicated audio input port (line-in) suitable for directly connecting a preamp or turntable. Here's what it does offer:
Available Audio Ports:
One audio line-out port (for speakers or headphones).
One global headset jack (combined headphone/microphone).
Multiple USB ports (which can be used with external audio interfaces).
What This Means:
You cannot directly connect a turntable or preamp using RCA or 3.5mm line-in cables.
To connect a turntable or preamp, you’ll need an external USB audio interface or USB sound card that includes line-in or phono inputs.
A:AnswerNo, the reason for buying a new monitor is the connection in the back monitor to the new PC is different from the old one. I had the old monitor for many years and it's time for a new one. Hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
