I hooked up my record player to my boyfriend's stereo today so I could make a mixtape. Everything was great, except I couldn't hear at all. I checked the radio to see if I had plugged it in right, and the radio came in loud and clear. Then I remembered, oh yeah! I have to use a pre-amp with this stereo (I don't need one with my receiver). So, I found the pre-amp and I found an AV cord to plug it in with and I still have nothing.
I don't think that's the problem, since I've gotten this to work with the existing equiptment before. That's why I'm so perplexed...It worked in the old apartment, why doesn't it work here?!
Did you find the correct AV Cord? It should be RCA, usually one red / one white connector. Colors are not important as long as it's an RCA connector, not a digital cable.
I am of course assuming that the cord is to connect the pre-amp with the receiver as the turntable should have a dedicated cord.
Yeah, I have the red and white cords, and they're all plugged in correctly. The cord I was talking about is the AC adapter. I don't know if that would make much of a difference though. It fits into the slot, so I assumed it was.
