The VPI Turntable pluuged into a PS Audio P300


Is it safe to plug a Lenmann Black Cube SE Phono preamp and VPI Scoutmaster turntable with the SDS motor controller into a PS Audio P300? I've heard that the P300 is not suitable for using with most turntable motors? Thanks

I had the SDS unit when I owned a TNT turntable and also have a P300. I experimented with various wiring schemes and ended up plugging the SDS into the wall (dedicated 20 amp circuit), with my phonostage and other front end gear plugged into the PS300.

Before I got the SDS, I WAS using the turntable directly into the P300. Sounded good, but not as good as with the SDS in the system. And as noted, you have to set the P300 at 60 Hz (for 33 1/3 records) or 81 Hz (for 45s) and not mess with any of the multiwave settings when playing records.
