turntable set-up assistance

So I just picked up some new turntables last night (stanton str8-100s) and they did not come with any audio cables.. Now i already have RCA cables that I could use with them but my question is do I need to go and buy a ground wire to ground them to the mixer? I will be using DVS if that matters at all.

Also the mixer I got did not come with a power adapter. If I go to best buy or somewhere and get a universal dc adapter will that be ok, or do I need the specific adapter for the mixer model to make it work?

Thanks for the help.

I think they have internal ground, so you won’t need an extra grounding cable.

glad to hear that I literally just ran from lowes to radio shack to bestbuy and no one had ground wire.. I was about to think I wouldn’t be able to play my with turntables today :disappointed:

any thoughts about the mixer?

your good man…built in ground…just hook up the rcas

just plug into the phono lines on the mixer and make sure the turntable is set to phono out

Which mixer is it?
Make & Model pls

Most of the mixers I’ve seen just use a normal kettle lead (like a PC).

If you can’t get one of those try looking for a normal PC lead (like a kettle)
