The only time I get any sound with the turntable is if I turn it up to the top...and then there is considerable static (obviously). I have hooked my turntable up to my old system and it works, but not with this one...any ideas.
Do you have the ground wire from the Turntable hooked up to the receivers ground terminal? it's a screw down silver nut and should be next to the Phono input. You are just lacking a ground from the turntable to the receiver. If you don't see a wire from the turntable, look around the chasis of the unit and you will fins it. Hope this helps
Just looked at Yamaha's FAQ. In order to add a phono to your receiver, you will need to add a phone pre-amp then use any input you wish on the receiver. Here's a link for one. Not expensive either. Hope this helps

Thanks for the quick feedback. I have the ground terminal on my old reciever, but not this Yamaha one. Any others solutions
Thanks Smarthome 2
My old receiver has a turntable input with a ground; however this Yamaha reciever does not have a dedicated turntable input; nor can I find any ground terminals other than for a FM/AM
SMarthome2...I guess I know where you got your name...works like a charm...many thanks
