I just got a hand-me-down turntable and am trying to get it to work with my HT system. The turntable is from a company called Dynavox and my receiver is the Kenwood VR-509. The turtable has a plug with two RCA jacks that connect to the receiver. One is red, the other is black.
After plugging the black one into the black jack on the receiver and the red to the red, I tried out the turntable. The records played fine at 45 RPM for a little while and then the turntable just stopped turning. I even tried it without the record and it still did not turn. After looking at the manual for the receiver I noticed that it wanted to have a black and a white plug going to the receiver, but it also wanted a ground wire. I have not seen a ground wire coming from the turntable though.
Anyone have any ideas why this is not working?
Thanks,
John
