Connecting turntables to pair of small home stereo speakers?

[byrde1994]

you'll need an amp, that has a "phono" input
if you're using real records

they have a lot of the low end EQ'd out, to keep the gooves small,
so if you plug a turntable into an amp without the "phono" input, it will not sound very good
it's called the "RIAA EQUALIZATION CURVE"

I have a set of turntables that I scratch with, and I was wondering if I could somehow connect them to a pair of home stereo speakers? Each speakers has a red and black wire. The turntables have a wire with a gray head and an orange head...
Can I do this?

Normally you'll need an amplifier to boost the signal from the TT so I doubt it.
