Turntable static

I just recently bought a Pyle Pro pp444 to go with my yamaha TT 300U


Theres insane amounts of static ... sampling youtube would sound substantially better...

Why do I have so much static is it the turntable or the pre amp

Pretty pissed i just spent 45 dollars on all the things i needed and its just as bad as the guitar amp i was running it through before.

Help appreciated

Need to ground turntable

maybe thumbnail this so other dumb noobs like me can get a quick fix

Always check the reviews before buying a preamp. Most of the cheaper ones are very defective.

Pyle Pro are notorious for defective products. My brother bought a Pyle pro amp and gave it to me, brand new. It didn't last a week before it stopped working.
