This is exactly what i was looking for. My son bought this turntable for me for Christmas and I would hate to not have it setup properly. Thanks for the information!

This video saved our sanity and our records! Following Angels' Horn out-of-the-box instructions had our tonearm skipping with the slightest footstep near our turntable! Now we've got the right force and can even do a little dance in our living room to our music! Thank you so much for posting this and the recommendation for the little scale! Best $10 investment!

Cannot thank you enough. My player would get stuck looping the further it got into the record. Makes sense that it was stuck due to low mobility levels !!!! I was so upset I couldn’t enjoy my records. Thank you!

Dude, you are a saint. Angel Horn sent me one for review and I wasn't sure what to make of the counterweight because I've never had a turntable with one. This video had me up and running in no time. I'll include a link to this video in my review when I publish it.🤘

Thank you so much for this video. I was so frustrated trying to figure mine out

Thank you for the helpful advice! HOWEVER, I have the H019 and the tone arm is pinned together, not screwed…. I’ve tried everything and strangely enough, lifting the back (almost 1/2 inch!) is what’s fixed my issue…. Thoughts, please and thank you!

[BenDufault]

I think this fixed it? Thank you either way! I feel like your recommendation absolutely helped!

anks for the vid! I just took the anti skate weight off altogether, and haven't had a problem with the needle dropping straight down. Using an Ortofon omega cartridge.

Wow sorry you had that issue. Its my first player and i set it up from instructions from the box no issues but you got me concerned about the 3.5g force. My records never got scratched yet ....

Thanks for the video! I’ve never had a turntable with counterweight adjustments needed. My only suggestion would be some close-ups as you’re making the adjustments. Also is the small weight dial supposed to just freely spin? I would imagine there should be an initial start point but mine spins freely in either direction. Thanks!

ours has an internal amp? we rant through my stereo receiver but no sound. Bought an external amp but not sure how to connect, there is a ground on the amp and on the turntable, but only one place to connect. What do I do with the other ground?

Thanks for the video. The only problem i have with my Angels Horn turntable is that after a few songs it just turns off and comes to a slow stop. I have to turn it off and back on to make it work. I am going to reach out to them.

Thank you so much for making this video. I just thought I was stupid.

[rileytucker]

Grrreat video! This just saved me setting mine up lol

[kaitlinkozak]

Mine will not turn despite the belt being placed correctly and the power source is fine. Any ideas? I've literally only used it once so far

[julie]

Curious what your favorite entry-level turntable is. And do you think the Angels Horn all-in-one is any better? Seems like the arm might be less stiff and the counterweight might be more accurate.

[lukejenkins]

Loosening the screws still doesn’t work for my turntable. the tone arm is still very sticky and impossible to balance. Any other suggestions?

[pistolpete]

Nice good work...what model is this?with bluetooth?

[CaseyKitch]

Great vid sir! I have the same exact turntable, but a different issue... The table spins at 34.5 rpm out of the box. Any idea how to solve? (belt is properly installed) I'm curious if yours spins fast as well and maybe you haven't noticed? Thanks!

[ashleyazubuike]

Thanks for this! Going to try this because I am very close to returning mine as the needle continues to scratch my records. Can you link the scale you used?
