Why?
There is unnecessary conversion. It is already analog so I see no sense in converting it to digital just to convert it back to analog.

USB turntables do exist and are popular for some reason.

Yes, to record vinyl to your computer. If your not going to use it for that purpose then I don't see any reason to use one.

But as has been said, using one of those cheap USB turntables to send a signal to a DAC is a little like trying to build a steak out of hamburger. |
