To transfer vinyl into a computer is more a case of needing hardware rather than software.  Basically you need a turntable, a phono preamp (both of which is sounds like you have) then an analogue to digital converter.   You may be able to do this with an adaptor cable to convert the L/R RCA/Phono jacks on your amplifier to plug into the 3.5mm stereo jack on your computer.  However, built in sound cards are notoriously poor quality and, if you want best results, you're better off with an external USB audio interface.

Probably the cheapest of these that could do the job for you would be a Behringer UCA222 which would allow you to patch from your amplifier to the interface and into Audition.  There's also a unit called the UFO202 that has a builti in phono pre amp that would let you bypass your amp--though as long as you amp is a decent one there's no reason to do this.

Anyway, once you have the vinyl disk recorded in your computer, Audition has a nice range of retoration tools that would probably do the job for you.  If you check under Effects/Noise Reduction and Restoration you'll find tools to remove background noise/his and also a click remover.  For serious clicks, you can do some manual editing in the Spectral Frequency Display.

There are various tutorials on using these features but if you go to Help/Audition Learn and scroll down, you'll find a good tutorial on noise reduction.

To end, there are highly specialised tools for restoring vinyl but you'd likely spend more on just one feature there than for all of Audition.  I know of at least one person who makes his living restoring vinyl who uses Audition as part of his workflow.

If you have a turntable with a cartridge output and no RIAA preamp, the Rx won't do, as it doesn't have a phono preamp. If you have a turntable with a preamp in it, so it has a line output, then you will be able to use the Soundblaster (even though we don't like them because of their dodgy drivers) - just use a line input. If you have a turntable with a USB output, you don't need a sound device at all to get signals from your turntable, as it will have digitised the signal already.
