Pro-Ject Audio Systems Xtensions 9 S-Shape Instructions For Use Manual page 9

Connect the tonearm cables to the Phono input (sometimes labelled gram, disc or RIAA) on your
amplifier. Make sure that the phono input offers correct matching and amplification for the type of
cartridge used. Line inputs (such as CD, Tuner, Tape or Video) are not suitable.
Take care to connect the left and right channels correctly. The right channel is usually marked red, the
left channel black or white. Check the manual supplied with your amplifier for relevant information. An
earthing wire may be connected to the screw terminal on your amplifier you encounter hum problems
when using the record player.
If your amplifier does not have an input suitable for phono cartridges you will require a separate
phono amplifier stage for MM or MC cartridges which is then connected between the record player
and a free line level input of the amplifier.
