Thanks, Ralf! I suppose the motherboard manufacturers use the
cheapest they can get away with, to keep the price down. As you say,
fortunately it's easy and relatively inexpensive to replace that
with something better.

I agree there, but in my case I knew I'd just be digitizing existing
recordings.

I know! I'm aware my cartridge, turntable, preamp, and the rest of
the system aren't high end, but I tried to buy all components of
about the same quality. If I were to hook up, for example,
outstanding speakers to it, they'd probably show the flaws of the
other components.
