Hi there (hoping this is the right place to post). I have a AT-LPW30TK turntable (connected to Edifier speakers) and I am having issues with the sound from the right speaker. The speakers work fine with Bluetooth, and this happens on several records so I'm assuming the problem must be with the turntable itself.

I have attached a link to video of the record playing to give you an indication of what the issue is with the sound. I'm wondering if the needle is damaged?


Cheers!

It is probably the electronics in the turntable (the phono stage). It could be interference from bluetooth/wifi, or just some bad electronics there. It would be hard to diagnose without further info.
