Why is my Denon Amplifier howling when playing records at high volume?
- A
  Amanda PerryAug 30, 2025
  If you are playing records and the volume is turned up and you hear howling from your Denon Amplifier, the issue may be: * The turntable and speaker systems are too close. Move speaker systems as far away as possible. * The floor is soft and vibrates easily. Use cushions to absorb the vibrations transmitted from the floor to the speakers. If the turntable does not include insulators, use audio insulators, available in stores.
