Hi VAGRANT
The Model is Technics SA AL 730 AV Tuner Amplifier

Are you sure about that number? or is it a sa aX730 ?

If so it's got loads of inputs on the back, you can use anything but the phono one, so tape or aux will do fine.

An amplifier without an input would be completely pointless, as there wouldn't be anything for it to amplify!

As Chuck indicates, there should be several input options. However, depending on the types of sockets used on the amplifier, you might need to buy an adapter cable (from your local branch of Maplin).

Usually amplifiers (even ones that are integrated with other devices) have at least one pair of "aux in" sockets on the back.
All you need is a L/R phono to 3.5mm stereo jack lead connected between the line-out of your computer and the "aux in" of your amp.
I have mine set up so that the line-out (from the computer) is plugged into 'tape in' on my amp, likewise I have the 'rec out' from my amp going to line-in on the comp.
This way I can record ANYTHING into my computer as well as having sound from my computer coming out of my nice big speakers, whether it be my telly/DVD, tape deck or turntable.
