    Why is my ELAC Turntable producing a loud humming noise?

      A loud humming noise from your ELAC Turntable can occur if the metal housing is acting as an antenna, creating AC Mains hum. To resolve this, check all connections. For acoustical checks relating to major problems, reduce the amplifier's volume level to minimum. Also, the RCA plugs' ground rings might need readjustment.

    What to do if audio signals are reproduced too loud and eventually distorted on ELAC Turntable?
    • M
      Maurice SanchezJul 31, 2025
      If the audio signals from your ELAC Turntable are too loud and distorted, it could be because the turntable is connected to the preamp's phono input, but the phono preamp implemented in the turntable is switched to “ON.” To fix this, connect the turntable to the line input of your preamp or switch the internal phono preamp to “THRU”.

    How to fix the wrong music pitch on my ELAC Miracord 50?
    • M
      Michael HendersonAug 9, 2025
      The music pitch on your ELAC Turntable might be wrong due to an incorrect speed selection. Check the correct speed for playing the record. Some records with an LP diameter (30 cm) must be played at 45 rpm (e.g., maxi singles), while some single format records (17 cm) should be played at 33 ? rpm (EPs).

    What to do if the right channel appears on left channel and vice versa on ELAC Turntable?

      Chris MillerAug 13, 2025
      If the right channel appears on the left channel and vice versa on your ELAC Turntable, the channels are likely swapped. Correct this by swapping the two RCA plugs (left and right channel) plugged into the turntable’s RCA jacks.

    Why doesn't my ELAC Turntable motor work?
    • B
      bcamachoAug 17, 2025
      The motor of your ELAC Turntable might not be working due to several reasons: 1. There is no connection to the mains or the mains fuse is blown. Check the mains plug, receptacle, and fuse. 2. The power supply is not connected properly. Check the low voltage plug for correct fit and fix it. 3. The front switch is in the “0” position. Switch the front switch to position “1”.

    Why is my ELAC Turntable making a faint humming noise?
    • K
      katrinabakerAug 21, 2025
      A faint humming noise from your ELAC Turntable can be caused by the ground wire not being attached. In some cases, connecting the metal parts of the turntable to the signal ground of the (phono-) preamp can help. Use the earthing screw on the rear side of the turntable and the wire attached to the included RCA cables for this purpose.
