If the turntable provides a ground connection, connect
l
this to the Ground terminal on the back panel to
minimise hum pickup.
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. For more information see Setting
the impedance and capacitance , page 10.
