!Caution!

If the turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the unit's GND screw. Note, however, that for some turntables, connecting the ground wire will increase the noise.  If this happens, do not connect the ground wire.

If there is no audio when connecting this unit to a turntable:

• Make sure that the cables are connected correctly.
• Make sure that none of the cables are kinked or damaged.
• Make sure that the input device is selected correctly.

  degrade audio performance.
