5.2 Connecting External Speakers (RCA Output)

To connect the turntable to an external amplifier or powered speakers for enhanced audio:

2. Ensure the turntable is powered on.
3. The audio from your external device will now play through the turntable's speakers. Adjust volume using the turntable's volume control and/or your external device's volume control.
