[QUOTE="thenoizeguy, post: 1056035, member: 14345"] As mentioned, you would need a phono stage and a preamp. Most of the gain controls on powered speakers are at the back, so it's not very practical to adjust individual volume settings on each monitor. I would personally go for used Yamaha HS5's, but your budget would be tight. Samson Media 1 5a's are more practical with the gain and inputs on the front, and both L and R amps in the left speaker, so you only need a speaker cable to the right one. You will still need a phono stage though. [/QUOTE]
