The only way you are going to get a newer receiver like this to accept phono is to find one that has a pre-amp built in OR you will have to use some sort of external pre-amp http://www.turntablelab.com/pages/beginners-guide-to-turntables is a good starter guide that will introduce you to setting them up and the equipment you may or may not need. I linked an Item that might accomplish what you need.
I would recommend:

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Jerry---great question! So you can connect a turntable to this receiver BUT you will need a phono pre-amp in order to do so. Just search the web for phono pre-amps and pick one up. Depending on the quality of your turntable, and your budget, you can buy phono pre-amps for $20 or $20,000. Important to keep in mind is if your cartridge is moving coil (MC) or moving magnet (MM). Some phono pre-amps will allow for either, some will only do one or the other. Make sure you know what type of cartridge your turntable has mounted to its tonearm before buying if you select a phono pre-amp which only does one or the other. There is a small possibility that your turntable has one built-in, but if you've always connected to a "Phono-in" in the past, I'd say this isn't likely. Connect the turntable output cables (left, right RCAs + ground) to the phono pre-amp's inputs side and then connect left/right RCA cables to the output on the phono pre-amp into any left/right unused RCA inputs on the receiver. There won't be many options as most connections are digital. Then you're all set. Oh, you'll need to plug in the phono pre-amp to a power source before you start playing records :) . Hope this helps!
