Depends on whether you want tone controls or not.
If not I would just use a volume control on the input of the Linsley-Hood with passive input switching for the tuner, tape and CD and then use a dedicated RIAA preamp for the Shure.
I have a design for such a preamp if you want, my own design using a passive, in line network for the RIAA response (not in the feedback loop as usual). Its what I use on my own system.
