🔧 DIY Tips

Setting up a record player yourself? Here's what matters:

🔧 What you'll need

  • Record player
  • Speakers or sound system
  • Cables (usually included)

📐 Setup tips

  1. Level surface essential
  2. Connect phono cables correctly
  3. Set tonearm weight right
  4. Position speakers apart
  5. Test with a record you know

⚠️ Important points

  • Turntable must be level
  • Don't touch stylus with fingers
  • Keep dust off records
  • Handle records by edges

💡 Pro tip: Before playing, gently brush dust off the record surface. A clean record sounds better and doesn't wear the stylus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What record players do you set up?

Old turntables, new all-in-one players, hi-fi systems, anything that plays vinyl. We get it working and show you how to use it.

Can you connect it to my speakers?

Yes - existing speakers, new speakers, soundbar, whatever you've got. We make sure the sound comes through properly.

What if the turntable is old?

Older turntables often work perfectly. We check the stylus, clean what needs cleaning, and test with your records. If parts are worn, we'll let you know.

Do you explain how to use it?

Absolutely - we walk you through putting on a record, adjusting volume, changing the stylus, storing records. As many times as needed until you're confident.
