Not really. Its always been complicated, you simply weren't aware of it. I can't speak for anyone else, but at one time I understood none of this either.
You could buy the TC-750 phono pre, and try it. The 220 pF input capacitance may not be ideal for the (assumed) moving magnet cartridge you're probably using, but it will allow you to listen to your records.
"sorry I bothered ya all" I don't know if anyone felt bothered by your inquiry, but I do feel that you were bothered by the complexity of some of the answers.
"but don't need all the headache" That right there is one reason CDs quickly replaced LPs for the masses. Of course there was a sonic penalty to be had with CDs, but on the other hand, CD's probably did sound better to many people, if their table, arm, and cartridge (along with the phono preamp) were poorly set-up, and/or mismatched.
Good luck.
