To the audio output of the turntable

Note

 

Using the turntable at high volume may cause

 

distortion or howling. This is often caused by the

 

bass sound from the speakers. The bass sound may

 

be picked up by the needle of the turntable, and

 

produce the distortion or howling. To avoid this, do

 

the following:

 

 

1 Keep some distance between the speakers and the

 

turntable.

 

 

2 Stop using the surround effect.

 

 

3 Install the speakers or the turntable on a firm and

 

stable surface.

 

 

4 Press DBFB repeatedly until “DBFB

”

 

disappears from the display (LBT-D290/G3300/

 

XB3/XB3K/XB30 only).

 

 

Press SUPER WOOFER repeatedly until the

 

8

indicator on this button goes off (except for LBT-

D290/G3300/XB3/XB3K/XB30).
