I see that there are battery powered units and mains units.</p> <p>I plan to upgrade the turntable to something that equals the performance of the speakers later so probably not the battery model?</p> <p>Many thanks</p> <p>Glenn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232311.aspxTue, 13 Oct 2009 18:12:30 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:232311Craig0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232311.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=232311<p>If by 9000 you mean a Beocenter 9000? Then the answer should be no as long as it is connected to the Phono input. If it is a Beosound 9000? Then yes you will need a Pre Amp.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Craig<img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232299.aspxTue, 13 Oct 2009 16:16:38 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:232299glug0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/232299.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=232299<p>I have hooked the two up with the DIN cable from the turntable into the 9000 socket but I have to turn the speakers up really high to hear anything. </p> <p>Should I be using the turntable in this way or do I need a pre amp between them?</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p>Glenn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
