FAQs

How do I clean the stylus?

Use a soft stylus brush, brushing gently from back to front. Avoid using any liquids.

What kind of phono pre-amp do I need?

You need either an amplifier with a built-in phono stage or an external phono pre-amp.

How often should I replace the stylus?

The stylus should be replaced every 300-500 hours of use, or sooner if you notice a decline in sound quality.

Can I upgrade the cartridge?

Yes, the Debut EVO 2 is designed to accommodate various cartridges, but ensure compatibility with the tonearm.

How do I change the speed from 33 to 45 RPM?

Use the electronic speed change switch located on the bottom of the turntable.

What is the purpose of the ground wire?

The ground wire helps to eliminate hum and noise by connecting the turntable to the amplifier's grounding system.

How do I clean the turntable?

Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the plinth and dust cover. Use a soft brush for the tonearm and platter. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

No sound or very quiet sound.

Check all cable connections, including the RCA cables and ground wire. Ensure your amplifier is set to the correct input and volume.

Humming or buzzing sound.

Make sure the ground wire is securely connected. Check for any interference from nearby electrical devices. Try a different power outlet.

Distorted sound.

Check the stylus for dust or damage and clean it. Ensure the tracking force and anti-skating are correctly set. Inspect the record for damage.

Speed issues (too fast or slow).

Check the belt's condition and ensure it is correctly placed on the motor pulley and platter. Verify the speed setting is correct.

Turntable won't power on.

Check the power adapter connection and ensure it is plugged into a working outlet. Check the power switch on the turntable.

  • Record Care: Handle records by their edges to avoid fingerprints. Store records vertically in a cool, dry place.
