Yeah it can at least tell you if the built-in preamp is the issue. If it is, you should be able to return/exchange the turntable.

 

Yeah, I don’t know much about those players, but it sounds like the preamp is dead inside.

Return it.

 

At least I have something in common with it.



Wow that was dark.


But yeah I’ll try the phono and see if it helps

 

It for sure has a preamp built inside?

 

Yes

 

Man, the audiotechnica support team are a bunch of geniuses

You've been in quite the Manchester Orchestra mood today, not that I mind at all.

 

I saw them last night so had to post the collection haha

 

Eventually I'd like to upgrade my speakers because I'm still using older speakers that require the copper cable wire and it's a pain in the ass.

Both my record player and the receiver (Sony) are only about four years old, but the speakers I'm using are very old.

Any recs on what I can hook up to my Sony Receiver? I don't mind wiring my speakers to the receiver, but I'd prefer ones that are easy to plug in and plug out and not have to worry about all the wires that get tangled and are a pain to even get out of the copper.

 

I GOT MY TURNTABLE TO WORK


The stylus needle was loose. I am a dumbass. That is all.

 

Would you say that you were getting some bad frequencies?

 

I was. But now they’re good Frequencies.



Until I play the album Bad Frequencies in which they’ll be awesome Frequencies. I haven’t heard it myself yet but @teebs41 and @Nate_Johnson say that album shines on vinyl

 

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHHAHA

 

Ha

 

My latest acquisition

 

Man, it’d be so cool if you had my band’s album on vinyl!

 

It would be.

Oh wait I do.

I have these and will never go back to copper wire

 

That moment when you have one hour to listen to a record and can’t pick between 3 options

 

What kind of speakers do you use with that cable? Does it matter? My current speakers are very old Sony ones, that don't even have a plug in for a cable cord...just the copper wire. But my receiver has outlets for both.

 

R-51M Bookshelf Speaker (Pair) | Klipsch

My center and far left & right speakers are Klipsch. My front left & right are old speakers I inherited from my Grandpa

Edit: Most new speakers you can use banana plugs

 

What’s the difference between copperwirea and these?? I’m new to this. My current speakers are connected by copper wire

 

I noticed a sound improvement when I switched to banana plugs. They're also just really easy to use. I hated cutting wire and keeping the ends together. I move apartments every year and it's easy for me to disassemble my speakers and get everything set up. They're nice to have
