How To Utilize A Phono Preamp Board As Stand Alone


Interested in what it would entail to utilize a phono preamp board out of a Luxman receiver or any maker for that matter
If if there is a post already covering this, please let me know
Give me a simple outline, as I am not to electrically savvy. Someone else would actually do the work, I'm just curious how you would go about connecting a wall wart or ?

Thank you

If you're talking about cannibalizing an old unit, just rip out the regulated power supply board with it and the transformer too. That's all the power supply you need. Of course there are other options... A small toroidal can be easily obtained with the required secondary, and you can build a regulated supply with printed circuit boards from diyaudiostore.com. 
I don't recommend a wall wart switching power supply. Phono pre-amps have a ton of gain and any noise in the supply will be highly amplified. You'd have to build a robust filter for that power supply.
