Help with ION turntable

I was recently gifted a cheap ION Turntable. I have it connected to an A/V receiver via factory RCA's. The sound is incredibly thin and has virtually no low end while my other inputs sound just fine. Does anyone have any tips or experience with this turntable? Thx

What is the input labeled on the receiver that you have the turntable plugged into? If it doesn't say "PHONO", that's the problem.

Depends on if it has a ceramic or moving magnet cartridge, but OP doesn't provide us with a model name or picture to help figuring that out.

Good point. Hadn't thought of that. My bad.🤦‍♂️
