I own this unit. It has a CD input and 3 line inputs. It does NOT have a phono pre-amp built in. Most modern turntables do, but mine is from 1974 (a Dual). I have an external phono pre-amp and it works great in 1 of the 3 line inputs. Turntables must have a pre-amp to work, be it built-in to the receiver, the turntable, or as in my case, an external 1. A chromecast audio dongle is in my Line 2 input. Line 3 for me is empty. But, suffice to say, anything analog (RCA) left/right could be input into the receiver. There is also built-in Bluetooth. So, in total you can have 5 devices input to the receiver at 1 time, assuming one of those is Bluetooth, and the other 4 (CD, and Lines 1-3) are all analog (RCA). The short answer to your question is yes. See included photo for receiver i/o
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It has a CD input, and 3 other general input channels. I don't see why it wouldn't accommodate a turntable and reel-to-reel. My own turntable cables have a ground cable, and my other amplifier has a specific turntable input with a ground connector, but I don't think the ground is critical.
