Decent beginner turntable.

Is that the line in on the amp?

If so then you will miss the translation of what comes out of the turntable
to a normal sound. Treble is exagerated from a turntable and bass very
much diminished.

This is translated by the phono stage to line level fully equalised as you
get from a cd player line out.

Yes you can do it but it will sound really awful.
