Jup the best thing would be to get a highend turntable to line 
converter. You also
can do the trick with some dj-mixer that has phono in jacks. Also you 
could just
grab a amplifier that has a phono jack and line out for recording to 
tape and then
have the amp do the converting for you. But if you plug the turntable 
directly into
your I2 that's not good. Most likely it will not work or it will sound 
terrible.
