Connections on the back of the amplifier

Since a fair few people have had trouble locating the correct connections on their amps, I thought I'd post some pictures to try and help out.

And here's one sent to me by a web reader, this one is labelled Tape Play and Tape Record - Record is the one to use:

phono connections


So, all the amps I've seen look basically the same. But I gather some of the all-in-one units don't look like this. Why not send me a picture of what you found, or how you rigged it?
