Hi all,
I've bought a new Marantz NR1510 and I have managed to succesfully connect my (older) TV (digital coaxial) and play music over the HEOS app, Spotify, internet radio etc with no problem. But I'm now having trouble connecting my turntable. It's a basic one - Ion Audio Max LP with a built in phono and pre-amp. It was working just fine until I connected it to the amp. I fist connected it to the phono input on the amp and I was getting VERY distorted sound. Then I thought that might have been a mistake, given that it has a built-in phono. So I connected it to the analog input for CD. I switched to the CD input and checked the Marantz settings to confirm it was set to analog. But I get no sound.
Things I've tried:
1. Connecting to the other 2 analog inputs on the amp (dvd and sat) but no sound.
2. Connecting it to my old speakers which had RCA inputs using the same cable and the I was getting sound.
3. Turned the volume up on the turntable's speakers to check the sound and it was working fine.
Any ideas on what I might be missing here? I'm new to this world so please forgive me if I missed something obvious!
Thank you!
