    the older vintage turntables did not have built in phono pre amps since all the receivers and integrated units had phono inputs.

    Welcome to Club Polk!

    THM is correct. That is a p-mount technics, early '90s though! Unlikely to have pre-amp built in. But it does not cost much to add a basic phono pre-amp into your system. something like this, perhaps?

    not a lot and better than the cheap pre-amps that come built in with the cheap turntables.
    How is your needle?
