Recommendations for turntable with Hegel H190

[Rzie]

I have a Hegel H190 amplifier, would like to buy a turntable and connect it to this amp. What are the suggestions in price segment up to 1000 Eur? Preamp integrated or better not? Thank you in advance

Can't see a phono/turntable input on that amp so you would either need to purchase an external phono-stage or a turntable with an internal one.

As for what to purchase there are the usual suspects of Pro-Ject and Rega, availability of other brands would depend on where you live.

Would there be a hearable difference in sound quality external phono stage vs integrated?

Many would say yes as you only get what you pay for, but in all honesty I have failed to hear any difference in a double blind test conducted with a good friend. Your ears may be better than mine

when you're paying that much for an amplifier of that nature then it makes sense to use a decent phono preamp. The ones fitted to some turntables are adequate but can be bettered by a reasonably cheap addition of a separate phono preamp.
If you want to keep it simple then buy a turntable with inbuilt phono stage.
