NOTE

The earth terminal (PHONO GND) of this unit is not for safety

grounding purposes. If this terminal is connected when there is a lot

of noise, the noise can be reduced. Note that depending on the

turntable, connecting the ground line may have the reverse effect of

increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the

ground line.

The PHONO input terminals are equipped with a short pin-plug.

Remove this plug to connect a record player. Store the removed short

pin-plug in a safe place so as not to lose it.

About balanced connectors

This unit has both unbalanced and balanced connectors. The

balanced connectors have three pins, making it possible to

transmit audio signals as a balanced signal, reducing the

effect of external noise. They also have a removable lock

mechanism, which reduces shaking in the connector area,

making the connection highly reliable.
