    No phono input so you’ll need another piece of equipment for a turntable. Only two inputs for head on my speakers, but I think that can be bypassed. Set up is easy but it keeps prompting me to set up each time I turn it on. Hoping that goes away soon when I have the ability to hook up my back speakers.
