I'm having an issue i cant seem to fix or find a solution to no matter what i read or watch. Basically when i try to listen to a record all i hear is a horrible distortion type sound. If you listen closely you can barely make out the music behind the distortion but most of the sound is just chaotic distortion. My original setup required me to add a phono pre-amp because the audio that was being produced was extremely low volume. I added a Fosi X2 pre-amp and this is where im currently at. I have the turntable cables connected to the Audio Technica AT-LP120-USB turntable connected to the MM Inputs on the Fosi X2 and RCA cables from the X2's Audio Output to my receiver's AUX input. I have the turntables built-in pre-amp switch on "Line". I feel like everything is as it should be but so far I'm almost $1,000 invested in all new gear to listen to my vinyl records and I still haven't been able to enjoy a single record. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm close to giving up and just buying one of those Crosley All-In-One briefcase players.
My setup is as follows:
Audio Technica AT-LP120-USB
Fosi X2 Phono Pre-amp
Denon AVR-S570BT
Thank you!
