Hi I have a Technics SCEH790 CD Shelf System, plus a pre amp phono stage for my turntable, I have had this working in the past as it was a friend who whirerd it all together, I have moved my hi fi to a differant place and I dont know how to whire it back up again, turn table had a red and white jack plug whire coming out of it and I don't know what to plug it into on my Technics SCEH790 CD Shelf System so if you hav a pic of the back of your same hi fi so I can see where I need to plug mine into, Many thanks ****

INs to OUTs means between different devices, not on the same device. Every output feeds an input somewhere else.

Turntable OUT (the only direction it has) to the Pre-amp IN. Preamp OUT to ANY available RCA input ON THE RECEIVER (usually AUX).

Nothing will blow up from the RCA cables. They're all low voltage, referred to as Line Level. The preamp takes Tuirntable cartridge level (very very small) and PREAMPLIFIES it to Line level for use by standard audio circuitry. It also messes with the frequency balance because the sound was severely changed to make it fit the grooves on the record. Google RIAA equalization. THAT is why PHONO only connects to PHONO. It is unique.

Red and White are Right and Left, respectively of your turntable's cartridge is wired correctly. It's just color coding for YOU to use in wiring and to help you keep continuity throughout multiple devices. It's all academic anyway. Maybe you would prefer to have the guitars on the opposite side. If you want to hear both channels you will have to connect both cables from the source through every device. INs to OUTs means between different devices, not on the same device.
