YES!!!!!!! MY EFFORTS PAID OFF!!!!! THANK YOU!!!
congrats my guy!
And it’s a great track too! Well chosen!
If you're ever doubting yourself on making these videos, don't.
When I first got into vinyl, I instantly flocked to your channel and stayed because of your friendly and welcoming personality.
Lots of other Vinyl channels have a sort of elitist aura to them, but yours feels very safe and very real. I appreciate the constant support you bring to the community. Thank you Jarrett!
Hey YOU! You’re awesome 😎 👏 Thanks for watching!
Your awesome!

Song of the day: The millionaire waltz - queen
Excellent video! A very important issue that was not mentioned is the compatibility in ohms of the speakers and the receiver/amplifier which is a very common problem when installing audio systems.
YOU are awesome - Thank you!
I was getting a really annoying hum from my turntable & I watched LOADS of ‘how-to’ videos without an answer but YOUR video cured it!
In Step One 2:15 you nailed it!
My turntable was set to ‘line’ but I was plugged into the phono input on my amp.
I simply plugged into the empty tuner input & the hum went away.
So happy, thanks.
You get a follow for that 🙂👍🏼

Glad to help! Thank you for the follow! More good stuff on the way!
Am I so glad I worked at Radio Shack back in the early to mid-'80s! I already knew a lot about audio equipment, but I was able to learn a lot more while I worked there!
🌬️ Thank you very much my friend, I appreciate your help on the humming situation because that really was a major problem for me. Now the sound is definitely loud and great! It's amazing how vinyl sounds when you have a great system to play it on.once again thanks 👍🏽💯
Song of the day: heart of glass by Blondie
Just installed an Audio-Technica turntable and have been having a popping sound in my bookshelf speakers (which are nice ones) while on 'phono' mode, but not when listening to cd's, tuner, etc. I think you've just nailed it for me...that I have it set to "phono" and "line" instead of 'phono-phono' or 'line'line'. Thanks for this video!
The grounding post isn't always needed, some decks connect the ground internally to the cold wires for each channel.
I have a Lenco L-3808 turntable (slightly cheaper version of the AT-LP120), upgraded with an AT95E cartridge replacing the AT3600, used on the Phono setting, with an ART-DJ Pre II phono stage, into the AUX input on a Cambridge Audio One (which is a combined Analogue and Digital Amp, with Radio and CD, without a phono stage). As with the LP120, there is no grounding post on the turntable, but it does have phono sockets instead of the wire straight out the back. I found that the mains hum was eliminated by using a good quality phono lead, which I made using Van Damme stereo cable (British brand, wire and plugs cost less than £10). Using a cheaper lead caused a serious hum problem.
As an aside, it might have been worth you mentioning that if both the Deck and Amplifier contain a phono stage, you might get different quality of sound depending on which one you use.
Excellent video! You explained, very clearly what and what NOT to do, regarding Turntable (phonograph) to receiver connection, phono/line switch, grounding, "pre-amp", no "pre-amp", speaker wire gage, incompatible gear, etc.... scenario. Bravo! What exactly happened to me, with the purchase of first turntable, receiver, since the 70s! Great job. I didn't understand some basics. You cleared up confusion. For an "audiophile", you might be redundant. For a total novice, you video was awesome.
Thank you!! I was just researching "multiple preamp " use for turntables...you explained it perfectly 👌

Btw nice haircut mate
To make things easy when I got my first record player, I bought one with a built in pre amp, and then bought a soundbar speaker. Not sure if that’s a “normal” solution or even a correct one but it’s worked great for me for 3+ years now!
sound bar is crap
Thanks again for steering me in the right direction. I am getting closer to making my decision on a turntable. Off to my Amp/Tuner and see what I have going on.
Thanks for all the info! This will help me so much when I eventually get an upgrade and brand new record player. Cheers!
This video woulda helped me alot 3 months ago. I did sooo much research & still ended up with passive speakers (so no volume knob) & preamp had no spot 4 ground cable. Ended up returning both 4 Active Speakers w/built in preamp. Def worth extra 100$ to have pre amp built in.
Due to your recommendations, I purchased a custom Uturn wood with the Grado head. Also got YOUR klipsch active speakers. Amazing combo thank you! Also just got the klipsch 12' sub to complete the set
Oh my god I accidentally came across the channel I used to watch 5 years ago. Wow this channel has grown so much!
Question for the Q & A Jarrett. Will you be able to get some Phil Collins albums for your collection if you able to find any in the near future?
Song of the day: In The Air Tonight - Phil Collins
My current set-up has both active speakers and a receiver, and what I did was connect the active speakers to an audio pre-out jack from the back of my receiver so I could utilize both at the same time without harming my active speakers built-in amplifier :)
That ground to housing connection is a really great tip
Wow that was super helpful, thank you!
Excellent videos thank you for making things easier!
Your turntable setup video helped me a lot
Good advice. Also if the volume is low it may be due to a low output cartridge. Changing to a cartridge that pushes out 12M Volts or more will provide more volume.
Wow, 12 megavolts. Thats a lot.
@@richardsinger01 12 millivolts!
I had recently bought Polk audio s20 with a Sony strdh190 receiver and thought I had it all wrong because I plugged my audio technica 120 into the phono and the sound was very staticky and awful so I got really disappointed but I screwed around and plugged it into line 1 and it worked perfectly. Huge upgrade from the little plug in speakers I had my turntable plugged into for years. The sound is amazing
Also bear in mind that 'some' turntables with built-in pre-amps have a separate ground wire (Audio Technica AT-LP3), and there are some turntables with no built-in pre-amp, that also have No ground wire (Rega Planar 1/2/3, etc), they are self grounded through the RCA Phono plugs.....
It's never as clear as it seems, but your video is pretty much accurate - with exceptions! ;-)
Was about to mention that not all has a ground even if they don't have an preamp
Indeed, I have two of them like that: an Onkyo and a JVC, both from the 80's (the Onkyo might even be early 90's, not sure...), both fully automatic, quartz-locked direct drive, no built-in pre-amp, but both self-grounded through RCA plugs -- no need to ground them separately. :-)
I have a DENON DP-200USB turntable without a ground wire. Based on your video, I would assume it has a built-in preamp. My receiver is a YAMAHA RX-V765 and it does not have a PHONO input. I used the AUDIO 1 input jacks. The sound out of the turntable was very low. So I assumed there was no preamp. I bought a DILVPOETRY PHONO BOX and hooked up the turntable to this phono box the connected that to the receiver. I can use the phono box now to control the volume now but the sound is muffled and scratchy. Is this a cartridge issue? Its a moving magnet type cartridge. I haven't used this turntable in a long time and the cartridge wasn't used very much. I don't know what to do next. RCA cable issue? cartridge replacement, different receiver jacks?
@@MrWaldorfian : After a quick google search to check my facts, having seen the model number of the turntable, I can confirm that your t-table does indeed have a built-in pre-amp - though Denon calls it a 'phono EQ' (which is quite correct too!
The fact that the model number contains 'USB' in the title is a dead-giveaway; it won't have USB without a pre-amp... ;-)
There will be a little slider switch on the back panel which just needs flicking across to engage the pre-amp...it may be labelled as "phono/line' or 'EQ on/off' - something like that! Switch it to 'Line' or 'On' and then you should have decent volume through your Yamaha receiver if you want to at least see how it compares to the pre-amp you bought. Just remember to put the switch back to 'Phono' or 'Off' if you want to connect back-up to your DILVPOETRY (never heard of it!) phono box. The muffled muddy sound may be an issue with that box, or may be a capacitance miss-match with that AT cartridge used....it requires between 100-200mf (a very common magnetic cartridge range) to get the best sound from it... your phono box may be fixed at a higher setting?
Also, check to make sure the stylus (needle) is clean, and in good shape - if the diamond tip is damaged or even missing that 'can' dull the sound, but normally skips straight across the record!
Just give the turntable's internal pre/EQ a try first, and see how it goes... :-)
It should be noted that the signal level is only part of the difference. The phono-level output still requires an RIAA equalization step built into the line output from a turntable or phono-in on a preamp or receiver.
The inverse is applied in mastering vinyl. This step was standardized to keep grooves narrow enough for bass sounds and squeeze more music on the disc.
Great Vid XD just wanted to add in, especially older Turntables the preamp switch is commonly under the platter instead of on the back
My first record player was the audiotechnica 120 as well. In order to play my records straight out of the box I connected it to my laptop

I like your tutorials very much. Well done 👍!
I am still using a Bang and Olufsen RLX, WOM in a drawing, in 1983-4.
I still have my 700+ records(vinyl) as well.
I see many disc cleaning systems reviewed, but I used a DISC KIT (zero stat gun, record pad, stylus brush, fluids etc.
I got very good results...
Somewhere along the life line, it disappeared.
Even my separate carbon fiber duster shortcut is now missing. (I see you had one on the counter behind you in this vid)
I never see the DISC KIT come up for sale complete...
So am considering a new cleaning system for my over 50 old collection.
Thank you thank you thank you
I was really frustrated as my turntable was giving howls and mega feedback until you told me to change the switch on the back and bingo , plays perfectly
Thank you
All very basic but Extremely important tips Nice work!
Yeeeeeee , new Video!!
Quick question, at around 6:56 I see there's no specific "phono" area to plug in a turntable as the Red and white plugs are in one of the "CD" terminals. Does this work with every receiver as long as the ground wire is attached? Keep up the awesome content!
Funny, you used a picture of a Sony Receiver that I bought yesterday! Now I know I have good gear 😉
Question for the Q&A
What is the best set up to go along with my Audio Technica LP-60. Something that can be used both for the turntable and for the TV.
I absolutely appreciate info and links to all the components in your vinyl setup in the description section, but I'm also very curious what those Sony and DVD units stacked up on top of the Yamaha receiver are.
Regarding the GROUND question.
1- Some turntables are grounded through the RCA connectors, usually the R connector.)
2- If there is no hum don't worry about it.
3- Vintage TTs many from the 70's did not have polarized plugs. If you have hum rotate the AC cord 180 degrees. This will quite often eliminate the hum by realigning the Hot and neutral lines.
4- All components should ground to the same point.
This all really helps me know what I’m getting into. Thanks a ton dude. Also, what is that Japanese album behind you on the wall?
Would love for you do a video on cleaning and taking care of records.
Q&A: How can I connect my Technics 1200mk7R (doesn't have a built-in preamp) to powered loudspeakers? What type of phono preamp do I need? Not for DJ, I want my setup to listen to music in my garage/studio. Thank you for all your videos, very helpful!
3:10 bro I had this exact problem and figured it out eventually on my own, than 2-3 days later I get this. I lowkey fell in love with vynly my uncles x girlfriend bought me a audio technica lpx60 bt wich is basically a Bluetooth/ regulare speaker audio technica and I love it so much
Hey Jarett, I believe that you can have an active speaker work with a receiver if the speaker has a switch on the back that switches between phono and line. By the way, thanks for the vid!
I spent hours to search and understand, which were quite well explained in this video in less then 7 minutes! Awesome video! I want to connect my turntable to both headphone and active speaker. I just learned there are amplifiers which have a passthrough connection passing the signal directly to the active speaker without going through the amplifier. Do you have any comments on this? Do you have any recommendations of amplifiers for this type of setup? Thank you so much!
Great explanatinons!
Hey, great video, you have any tips for removing static from vinyl records?, thank you.
I love your videos! I'm getting ready to purchase the Audio Technica LP120. What would be the best speakers to pair with it?
Wow! he answered all my questions about why my turntable was not working!
If you don't have a headphone amp, but have a USB soundcard with line in and headphone out with volume control it might have a pass through mode and work as a headphone amp pretty well when connected to a power-only USB socket, like a phone charger. Creative SoundblasterX G6 and Behringer U-PHONO do that. U-PHONO even has a phono preamp in it as well. I was considering getting the Behringer as a phono preamp (and maybe get a better one later) when I was considering either buying an old Technics without a preamp, or a new Audio Technica AT-LP120x with a preamp. The latter won because of easier shipping and it having a fresh cartridge with an elliptical stylus. Now I either listen to it through my speakers-only amplifier or through the SoundblasterX G6. It's a really nice soundcard, and I got it mostly to digitize records and cassettes so I can listen to them away from home. And it even works with Android if you have a Neutron music player app.
So happy I clicked on this video right now, I've got a Technics SL-1500C that comes with a preamp built in, and I've got Klipsch The Fives coming in soon to use with my TV and the turntable. If I understood correctly, I can then set the turntable to line, and then turn the switch on the speakers to phono? That way I use the preamp in the turntable and not the speakers?
You forgot that there can also be a switch for MM & MC Cartridges on the phono input of the amplifier 😉✌🏻
Very true! My pro-ject tube box DS2 also works with both MM and MC carts!
Great videos! Would like to ask you one question: what would be your choice between an Audio Technica LP-3 and an LP-120X?
Thank you!
Super helpful! What do I do if my turntable doesn't have a ground wire? My turn table doesn't have a built in pre amp.

Now question:
I have a vintage setup received by my father, that include a Pioneer turntable with a new Sumiko Pearl Cartridge, Yamaha CA 710 Amplifier and 2 JBL. All the stuff is directly from the 70s and sounds amazing. But I would like to improve it and I was wondering to buy a pair of Yamaha HS8 and I don't understand if it is possible to plug in the new monitor speakers to my vintage setup.
Thanks in advice, best channel for vinyl lovers
Thanks so much for the videos, they’re super helpful. But I have a specific question... my turntable has a knob that says “tuner, tape, phono”... is this considered a pre-amp?
When I bought my audio Technica lp60x I had the line output on and because my stereo receiver (the Kenwood KR 595) had a built-in phono preamp I nearly blew out my speakers it was so loud, let's just say whenever I buy a turntable with a built-in preamp I will never make that mistake again.
Does vinyl moon do anything for those in the Uk? Also awesome video, its reassuring that i know what im doing right
Thank you!!!
Have you made a video on needles? I’m curious about which one to buy??
hey Jarett, do you wash new LPs before playing them?
great video! although the first problem doesnt always apply, for example for an all headphone setup you would have the phono pre amp and the headphone pre amp
Could you explain what to look for when buying passive speakers so that they sound good with your amp? Thanks!
Hi there. I have a very old BRC turntable with speakers. It does also have a 5 pin female plug and outputs for the speakers with some very strange plugs but no RCA outputs. Do you think I can use the 5 pin to conect to vintage receiver with phono input? The 5 pin is output with a sign like stereo tape.
VE please what should i do when i lost the cover for my record?
Love your videos
Great video my friend!!! One question I have a jvc jl-a20 back from '78... No preamp buildin... I want to hook it with my crystal audio casb240, a sound bar 2.1 system that has an amplifier... Do i need preamp between them??? Or I can hook the rca from turntable to the soundbar with the aux adapter???
Only half right on the receiver and active speakers. Many receivers come with a line out/pre-out connection so you can definitely connect active speakers or external amplifiers to them depending on the model.
Thank you 👏👏👏🎉
Hello, great channel, is the only thing I see lately, a question, if I connect my turntable to an external preamp how should I configure the ground connection, only from the turntable to the preamp or should I also send another ground wire from the preamp to my receiver? Thank you!
Hi I enjoy your show. I have a question for you, I just bought a Technis sl-b200 turntable at a yard sale it plays great, my question is it has cueing on it what is this?
I have active speakers (studio monitors to be precise, got a good deal) and amp/receiver - this works if speakers are connected to the phones output 😉
I have been enjoying decent stereo equipment since about 1974. My first really nice turntable was a Duel 1219, which in my opinion is a fine turntable. Even though it uses an idle wheel drive, the 9 pound platter keeps things very stable. I also have owned a Harmon Kardon ST-7 and a Technics SL-10. My current turntable is an Audio Technica AT-LP1240 which will play 33 1/3s, 45s, 78s and although not stated 16 2/3 precisely. It's a DJ turntable but I think it works wonderfully as a home unit. I would love to see someone review one online. I use a Shure M97xE and a Sure M78S for 78s. I've used the LP1240 as my main turntable since Dec 2013 and it has worked flawlessly. They are still selling them on Amazon. And, yes, I do have several 16 2/3 RPM records.
The M78S is a great cart, I also use it with mono vinyl and use SC35 stylus
@@vaughntonkin539 I'll have to check that out. I have a lot of mono LPs from the 50s, including the early experimental "Prepared Piano" works from Ferrante & Teicher. Thanks
I’m not even a minute into this yet but I had to stop and say Our Endless Numbered Days is one of the best indie folk albums I’ve ever heard. We all already knew this, but for reiteration’s sake: my friend, you have great taste.

Question: I replace all my paper sleeves with poly but... do I need to use poly inner sleeves with newer albums that come with combination poly inside/paper outside type sleeves?
Homebrew58 That’s up to personal choice.
I will say that you definitely need to replace your inner sleeves if they are just paper alone. Paper sleeves have the tendency to scuff your records. They also rip and tear easily, not to mention that they turn yellow over time. So why do many records, particularly older ones, still have paper sleeves? Simple: because they’re cheap, that’s why. Considering how many a record label would buy, they probably don’t even pay a penny a piece for them.
But then what about poly lined paper sleeves? This is definitely a step in the right direction. I haven’t heard anyone really complaining about them. But do remember that paper yellows over time. For this reason alone (and there are others), I would recommend purchasing rice paper sleeves that don’t yellow (certainly not as quickly) like plain paper sleeves.
So which ones? Many people like the MoFi sleeves. While these are good sleeves, you can get the Diskeeper standard sleeves from Sleeve City that are identical to the MoFi sleeves (but more sturdy IMHO) for about $2 less a package than the MoFi sleeves. I personally use the Diskeeper Ultimate sleeves. These are a little more expensive, but in my book they’re worth it if you’re serious about your vinyl collection.
So the choice is up to you! You can certainly keep your poly lined sleeves for now and then upgrade them when you’re ready.
Ok, we are moving to the next level and want a player with a preamp installed; what do we need now? Great site btw. Thank you!
My question is: Direct Drive vs Belt pros and cons
Direct drive usually gives more speed stability and of course no belt to replace. Also direct drive TT's normally have switched speed controls to change from 45 to 33. Belt drive usually offers less vibration from the motor and are simpler in design, therefore you can buy a really good belt drive TT for less than a drive drive model. But belts don't last forever and when old can stretch but are cheap to replace. however some belt drive TT's are fully manual and to change speed you have to lift the belt onto the larger spindle of the motor and in some cases remove the plater to achieve this. its swings and roundabouts really. Many direct drive TT's are superbly built and will last a lifetime. I have both a direct drive and a belt drive turntable and enjoy them both for their individual merits.
@lazycalm41 , Hi, I wanted to ask if belt driven TT's like my pro-ject are ''weak'' to play the 78 rpm records? I know I have to get the pulley kit and the new cartridge etc.
but is the 78 rpm pulley kit is bad for the 78 rpm designed pro-ject turntables? It might have a little pressure on the motor but I’d love to hear your answer
@@wasimn4222 I am afraid I have no idea. personally I wouldn't dream of playing 78's on a decent turntable at all!
@@lazycalm41 one of each is the answer
Just a response to the question about 78s. Broadly it should be ok. I've not tried the pulley kit on a Pro-ject turntable but once rotating, it won't need all that much more power than any other speed (the key difference will be the greater friction from the higher tracking weight 78s usually demand)
One word of caution though. Playing acoustic discs (typically pre war) through a modern phono stage might sound weird. That's because modern phono stages apply the RIAA eq curve which won't have been applied to acoustic recordings. If you have a graphic equalizer you can fix it. Also, a lot of pre war 78s may not have been recorded at 78 rpm so that will be fun for you.
If you're really serious about 78s, take a look at the Audio Technica lp120 as I believe it can do 78 but has pitch control (looking at this as a second turntable myself)
Hey! I know the video is two years old. But I just picked up a Sunsui SR-222. I am looking towards getting active speakers and set them up in my living room. How would you recommend grounding the record player if I use passive speakers? Thank you in advance!
Thanks 👍
Thank you for this video. If I understand correctly, I can connect my turntable, (Which does not have a pre-amp) to a tube pre-amp and then to a "line in", (CD etc) on my receiver because it does have a phono pre-amp and I don't want to use that input?
A receiver can work with active speakers IF you use something to reduce the signal from speaker level to line level. personally I'm using a 16 channel DI which has a -30 DB pad option. that way i can use my receiver to up-mix audio while using my HS8 monitors. my setup has the phono preamp going into an active DI which then send the balanced audio down ~100ft of cat5e to the A/V closet which then goes into computers audio interface to play/record.
Thanks for the video. I have my turntable hooked up to the phono inout on my AVR. Volume is low. Is it best to flip turntable preamp off and connect it to a different inout on the AVR. CD, etc.? Thanks for any replies!
Do you have some tips to setup subwoofer which I think very essential for great sound?
Question: entry setup for beginners that would actually cover something else like Spotify.
Looking into getting in Vinyl but trying to make it as simple as possible: Would there be a affordable Speaker that could connect to a turntable but also Spotify connect ready for flexibility and small footprint.
Is there anything out there like that?
Great videos! I had a question regarding connecting an old Realistic turntable (without a preamp) to a newer guitar amplifier…is that possible ? If so how? Thanks!
Good video, thanks.
When I play my records, I can hear the record quite clearly from the platter - I have to turn my volume right up to cover the sound. Surely that's not right!? Any suggestions?
Hi us that a sony amplifier in the video as i am thinking of getting one . If it us will it work with a turntable with no ground wire? Excellent friendly video.😊
Hey Jarrett ! Thank You for your Technical Expertise!!! Yes I do have a question! When it comes to connecting phono cartridge lead wires, there does not seem to be much, if any information about it! I recently t a brand new AT XP120USB turntable. I already knew, before I even got it, that I would be UP GRADING the cartridge with my Stanton. Unfortunately, for me I forgot to keep track of the wiring, and I'm also replacing the lead wires with AT "copper" lead wires. I guess I'll have to keep switching the wires around until it sounds "right" as there does not appear to be any universal standard regarding lead wire pattern/ connection.
The Stanton should have standard pin out pattern, Ortofon has 90 deg anti-clock rotation
Hi, Greetings from Mumbai.
I have watched several of your videos and it is a delight to listen ! Please do say a few words on Blue tooth Bose speakers specifically AT-LP120XUSB.
Hey Jarrett! I am listening on an Audio Technica LP-120-USB. Received a bunch of mono 45s. How do I find/differentiate stereo vs. mono needle cartridges?
What is your opinion on linear tracking turntables?
Any opinions on styrene 45 singles?
You could use powered speakers with a receiver if the receiver has pre outs
Hey Jarrett, my question is: if you get a turntable without a preamp and speakers with the preamp and amplifier (Kanto YU6) do you need to ground the turntable to the speakers?
Hiii! I need to replace my needle and cartridge for the first time and I wanted to know if you think that an ortofon om 5e its a good choice ( I have an old JVC QL-F4 turntable). I wanted to buy the 2m red but it’s out of my budget.
I enjoy your videos. Thank you. I have an issue with my turntable setup. The vocal tracks are muted. I can hear it, but it is in the background. The other instruments are fine and loud. I just messed with it and I can hear vocals and instruments if I unplug one of the right or left rca cables. Have you experienced this, or has anyone else mentioned this issue? I am guessing it is my receiver, but I am only guessing until I buy another receiver to check it. I purchased a thrift store turntable to check against the one I have. The same issue on both. Muted vocals if both rca cables are attached. What do u think?
