Hey y'all. First time poster.
Wondered if any of you could help resolve an issue that's driving me absolutely insane.
I have an Audio Technica LP120 turntable, using the build-in pre-amp to plug into a set of Audio Engine A5+ powered speakers through the built in RCA cables.
When it sounds great, it sounds great, but the sound quality is so inconsistent and seems to become distorted at any given time. The problem seems to be accentuated by movement also.
I had attributed this to a faulty turntable as everything else I hooked up to the speakers sounded awesome. However, I swapped out the turntable and I'm having the same issue.
Is there anything that would prevent this set-up working optimally? I've performed every search I can think of, but have found nothing to help. Audio Engine tells me there's no reason why the set up shouldn't work.
Should I get a different pre-amp, despite my turntable having one built in?
Any answers or suggestions you may be able to offer would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
