    What to do if my Optimus Turntable has no sound?
    • T
      Taylor JonesAug 3, 2025
      If your Optimus Turntable produces no sound, first, ensure the receiver/amplifier volume isn't set to the minimum; adjust it as needed. Verify that the turntable is correctly connected to the receiver/amplifier by rechecking all connections. Also, check the LINE OUT ON/PHONO OUT OFF setting; if it's set to PHONO OUT OFF and the turntable is connected to the receiver's/amplifier's line-level input jacks, switch it to LINE OUT ON. Finally, the stylus may need replacing.

      If your Optimus Turntable isn't working, make sure the connected receiver/amplifier is turned on. Check the rubber drive belt to ensure it hasn't slipped, broken, or isn't mounted correctly. Also, examine the power cord and AC outlet for any power issues.

      If the sound from your Optimus Turntable is unclear or scratchy during play, start by cleaning the record. Next, clean the stylus with a soft brush. Check if the stylus is improperly installed and reinstall it if necessary, or if it's worn, replace it. Lastly, if the LINE OUT ON/PHONO OUT OFF is set to LINE OUT ON and the turntable is connected to the receiver's/amplifier's low-level phono input jacks, set it to PHONO OUT OFF.

      Amanda KennedyAug 21, 2025
      If you're experiencing hum from your Optimus Turntable during play, check the stylus and reinstall it if necessary. Also, inspect the ground terminal and reposition the turntable away from other components to avoid induction hum. If the LINE OUT ON/PHONO OUT OFF is set to LINE OUT ON and the turntable is connected to the receiver’s/amplifier’s low-level phono input jacks, set it to PHONO OUT OFF.
