My S6 broke down after a couple of months, really weird. The tape in connection started failing and now it's hardly usable. Everything else works fine though. I guess I got a bad one.

Yeah, that kind of sucked. As for your question, well, I don't know really. I think you should be alright, especially since most turntables have such a weak signal.

I haven't had a turntable since a shelf fell down from the wall and crushed my old one(!), so I can't really test it either. Sorry.
