Hi,
I'm looking for some advise. I have a RR2150. The video inputs are connected to a Motorola DCX3400 PVR, and the CD/DVD inputs are connected to an Oppo BDP-83. All sounds great smile.

I'd also like to connect an Aluratek Wifi/Internet Radio Tuner to the RR2150. The Aluratek connects via Red/White RCA cables. What's my optimal connection option, based on the remaining inputs available to me?

Thanks.

It looks like the Tape In will do the trick. Don't want to use the phono input.

Thanks gonk. It was the phono input that I was unclear on. So, in summary the phono input can only be used for a turntable, I assume because of the sensitity selector. Is that correct?

That is exactly correct. Turntables have a very low level output, and phono preamps (such as the one in the RR2150 that is connected to the phono input) compensate for that. They do some other things, as well, that are related to the way records work - but more than anything else it's the level difference that makes you not want to use phono inputs with any other kind of source.
