have at it !,,,, re the ground wire…
New to Turntables
My Father sent me a box of 45s and I no longer have a record player. Albeit, I do have some old LPs stored away. So I thought it was time to get at least a serviceable record player.
I opted for the Denon DP-450USB. All the reviews say that the cartridge on this player is sub-par, so I have ordered the Ortofon 2m Red to replace it.
The question I have is on the best setup, based on what I have. The Denon player has a built in pre-amp and my Yamaha TSR-7810 has a Phono stage connection.
Would it be better to use the player's built in pre-amp? Or switch the pre-amp off and use the Yamaha's pre-amp? I suppose it is a matter whether Yamaha's pre-amp is better than the built in Denon player's pre-amp.
Any thoughts?
