Specifications*Troubleshooting
Turntable operates but emits no sound or not enough
sound.
1. Amplifier (system) controls are set incorrectly: wrong input selected, tape
monitor on, speakers switched off, etc. Verify proper control settings.
2. Stylus is broken or missing. Check the stylus assembly and replace if
necessary.
3. The stylus assembly may not be fully seated in the cartridge body. Check the
cartridge and adjust if necessary.
4. The pre-amplifier selector switch of the AT-LP5 is set in the wrong position.
Verify that it is set to the correct output to match amplifier input.
- No sound/very weak sound: Phono Out setting into an Aux/Line input.
- Very loud/distorted sound: Line Out setting into a Phono input.
5. The tracking force is set too heavy (stylus assembly is bottoming out on
record). Set tracking force per cartridge manufacturer’s recommendation.
6. Turntable is picking up excessive vibrations from floor, walls, or nearby
speakers. Reduce vibrations or place turntable on sturdy/solid surface.
Turntable operates but stylus “skips” across record.
1. The stylus guard is still in place. Remove the stylus guard.
2. The tracking force is set too light. Set tracking force per cartridge
manufacturer’s recommendation.
3. The anti-skate control is set improperly. Verify anti-skate is set for same
value as cartridge tracking force.
Record sounds too fast or too slow.
1. Turntable is set for wrong speed. Make proper speed selection for record
type being played with platter speed selector.
Tips to avoid damage
• Do not touch the stylus tip with your fingers; avoid bumping the stylus on
the turntable mat or a record’s edge.
• Clean the stylus tip frequently, using a soft brush and a back-to-front
motion.
• If you use a stylus cleaning fluid, use it sparingly.
• Never apply harsh chemicals or solvents to any part of the turntable
system.
• Prior to moving the turntable, always unplug it from the AC outlet and
lock the tonearm on the tonearm rest.
