Connect 78 rpm turntable to Vinnie Rossi L2i SE amp?

Thank you all, this is hugely helpful! Apologies if this is a dumb question, but how would you connect the turntable to the amp (again, without the modular phono stage)?

Thank you all very much for your suggestions!  I myself don't have the skills to rehab an old turntable and don't have the budget to buy something like the Sentec new. The Dual 1214, if in good working condition, and the Grado both seem to be good ideas and definitely in budget.  Alternately, is there anyone in NYC or Dutchess County who would be willing to help put something together for a fee? 

For the transfers, she will definitely hire a pro to do them. If the records are great -- they are old family records, some possibly rare -- and we want to listen to them for fun, then we''ll definitely consider higher end alternatives. 

I will look more closely at various suggestions over the weekend.  Thank you again!

Thank you all for your excellent advice. As a first step, we're going to buy something cheap just to be able to listen to what's on the recordings -- some are unlabelled, some are even home recordings from a family of musicians, and my wife just wants to see what's there, and to know what's worth sending to a pro for digitizing for the film.  Later we'll decide if we want a better setup to play through our audio system, in which case I'll start with your advice.  Much appreciated!
