Ive been digging out my old audio stuff and vinyl thats been in the barn for a bit and have a few questions about this preamp(Mcintosh C28).Its solid state and i would like to hook it up to a tube amp like a Dynaco or something like that,so is that possible?My goal is to start to play the old vinyl and im looking for the cheapest way possible with what i have.My second question is would it be possible to use this preamp and turntable with the right software to transfer vinyl to hard drive on the computer.The preamp dose have a line out.The third question is can i hook up a CD player to one of the many inputs of this preamp?I know that i will have to put a couple of bucks into it to get it in working order and to clean off the mouse **** but its here and was a good preamp.Thanks in advance

Answers, in order:

1. Yes

2. Yes, but overall quality will be dependant on your computer sound card.

3. Yes. Any of the marked 'High-Level' inputs will be fine (Tape 1, Tape 2, Tuner, or Aux).
