These instructions help you get the best possible sound
from your R35.
Phase
The phase of the AC supply can make a significant
difference to the sound.
Use the Polarity Pen supplied with the R35 to verify which
pin is live on your AC power cable.
Ensure that the live pin of the AC power cable is
connected to the left-hand pin of the power connector,
viewed from the back panel:
Live
Burn-in
Your Primare will start to sound best after an initial burn-in
of approximately hours.
You will notice a further smaller improvement in sound
quality for at least another 3 days' playing.
Trigger
For convenience the R35 can be powered on and off via
a remote link cable, avoiding the need to switch it on or
off separately from the preamplifier in the system.
To power the R35 on and off remotely from a Primare
processor or preamplifier connect the TRIG OUT signal
from the processor/preamplifier to the TRIG IN socket on
the R35, using a twin core cable terminated in 3.5mm
jack plugs.
The TRIG OUT socket can be used to daisy-chain the
remote output to further Primare products.

Setting the impedance and capacitance
By default the R35 is configured for an input impedance
of 7kΩ (MC input) or .5kΩ (MM setting), and an input
capacitance of 1nF (MC setting) or 100pF (MM setting),
but you can adjust this using the DIP switches under the
plates on the back panel.
Remove both plates by unscrewing the retaining thumb
l
screws.

settings
Set the switches up (OFF) or down (ON) according to
l
the following tables.
You only need to set the switches appropriate to the type
of cartridge you are using.
There are two sets of switches, one for the L channel and
one for the R channel. Set the L and R switches to the
same positions.
Choosing the correct settings
Details of the correct settings will be provided in the
documentation for the cartridge you are using. We
suggest listening to values either side of the recommended
ones to choose the ideal settings for your system.
