2 things - you should be comning out of the tape out, not the headphone jack, and you might want to use an outboard A/D sound card, not the computer's internal convertors.

And just to quibble, that is the phono input of a combo amp, not a "dedicated" phono preamp. Dedicated means it does only one thing...

Best luck!
