Connecting a playback device

You can connect turntables, tuners, CD players and network audio players to this unit.
This unit is compatible with turntables equipped with a moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge. When you connect to a turntable with a low output moving
coil (MC) cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer.
If you set this unit's input source to "PHONO" and you accidentally increase the volume without having a turntable connected, you may hear a hum noise
from the speakers.

• The PHONO input terminals are equipped with a short pin-plug.
AC IN
Remove this plug to connect a record player.
Store the removed short pin-plug in a safe place so as not to
lose it.
NOTE
• The ground line (SIGNAL GND) on this unit is not a safety
ground. Connect it to reduce noise when noise is excessive.
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.
