The bottom line is that phono inputs on an amplifier should only be used for turntable/record deck signals, in this case with a moving magnet cartridge.

Another device with low (< 30mV) signal output + matching impedance maybe could be used, but due the phono pre-amplifier applying RIAA equalisation may not sound quite right.
