Using your Denon DP-450USB turntable is easy. First, connect the detachable RCA cable to your audio system and the power cord to a power source. Place a record on the cast aluminum platter and use the rubber record mat for better stability. You can choose from three playback speeds - 33, 45, or 78 rpm - by using the knob. The S-shaped tonearm with a pre-mounted cartridge will do the rest. For USB recording, simply insert a USB flash drive into the front-access USB output. Press either the MP3 or WAV button to start recording your favorite records. The MusiCut Software (for Windows) or Audacity (for Mac) can be used to edit your recordings. The Auto-Stop function will lift the tonearm and turn off the motor at the end of the record, but you can turn it off if you prefer. When using the turntable, take off the dust cover and place it on the stand, which also doubles as an album cover display. Remember, this is an open box item, and all sales are final. The exterior grade is 9.0 out of 10, but the original packaging might show some damage. To maintain your turntable, keep it clean and free from dust. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid touching the stylus directly as it can easily get damaged. Also, make sure to store the turntable in a dry and stable place.
