@0Ground terminal (SIGNAL GND)

Connect the turntable’s ground wire here.

NOTE:

This terminal is used to reduce noise when a turntable, etc., is connected.

It does not provide grounding.

@1Cartridge selection switch (CARTRIDGE)

This switch is set according to the type of player cartridge to be used.

Set this switch to MM (£) or MC (¢) according to the type of cartridge used on your turntable.

2 CONNECTIONS

Connecting the speakers

Speaker impedance

When using speaker systems A and B separately, speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 /ohms can be connected.

When biwiring with biwireable speaker system, speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 /ohms can be connected.

Note that when using two sets of speaker systems together (A + B), use speakers with impedance 8 to 16 /ohms,

using speakers with an impedance other than between 8 to 16 /ohms may cause damages.

Note that this unit is not equipped with a switch for selecting the speaker system. The A and B speaker output terminals are connected in parallel.

The protective circuit may be activated if speakers with other impedances are connected.

Be sure to connect the cords between the speaker terminals and speaker systems with the same polarities (< to <, > to >). If not, the central sound will be weak and the position of the different instruments will not be clear, diminishing the stereo effect.

When connecting the speakers, be sure that the core wires of the speaker cords do not stick out from the terminals and touch other terminals, each other or the rear panel.

Connecting the speaker cords

q Peel off the sheathing from the end of the cord. w Twist the core wires.

e Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen it.

r Insert the core wires entirely, then turn the terminal clockwise to tighten it.

CAUTIONProtective Circuit

This set is equipped with a high speed protective circuit. This circuit protects the internal circuitry from damage due to large currents flowing when the speaker jacks are not completely connected or when an output is generated by a short circuit. This protective circuit’s operation cuts off the output to the speakers. In such a case, be sure to turn the power off and check the connections to the speakers. Then turn the power on again. After muting for several seconds, the set will operate normally.

NOTE:

NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so could result in electric shocks.
