Looking for an amp with both phono and usb inputs - any ideas?

And most importantly for which speakers.

Welcome to the forum.

What you are looking for is rare and they are not cheap as they are normally amp/DACs. Can I ask the reason as to why it has to have USB and what is your budget.

For your information you could view the following (all at about £350):-

TEAC A-H01

Cambridge Azur 651

Project StereoBox DS and, of course, most of the AV amps. (My money's on the TEAC *biggrin* )

Thanks Guys - basically I need a phono input for a turntable and I wanted to plug in my laptop for my downloads and also for streaming. I was thinking of some KEF speakers

Rotel RA11 or RA12.

I was going to list the Teac AH01, but that doesn't have a phono (turntable) input.

David is quite right about the RA11, I missed the bit about phono inputs and thought the TEAC had them.

The RA11 will set you back about £500.

A cheaper option might be to go for a cheap phono preamp and the Cambridge Azur but as we do not know your budget this might be debatable.

I was looking to spend around the £500 mark
