Placement and Initial Setup
Because the Phono3 runs cool it can be
placed in many system locations without
compromise. We do not recommend
placing weights or other objects directly
on the Phono3. This may mar or scratch
the chassis finish. Do not use harsh
chemicals when cleaning the outside of
your Phono3.
IMPORTANT: Make all connections and settings before powering your unit.
The Bel Canto Phono3 is designed to
provide low noise operation for moving
coil and moving magnet phono car-
tridges and high accuracy audio RIAA
equalization:
• All analog, low noise, low distortion
Class A integrated circuit architecture.
• High Current output buffer for driving
any load.
• 4-layer PC board design for superior
signal routing, grounding and power
supply routing.
• Latest generation of low-noise, low-dis-
tortion high speed audio amplifiers,
and output drivers provide superb meas-
ured and subjective audio quality.
• Multi-stage power supplies for precise
power to the sensitive analog circuitry
• Precision audio grade resistors and
precision metal foil film capacitors in
the audio signal path.
• Ultra low noise second stage dual inde-
pendant regulation for the analog
amplifier sections.
