Phono Line Input - Rega Elicit-R Manual

PHONO LINE INPUT (Input 1)
Input 1 can be used as a phono input for use with moving magnet (MM) or HIGH
OUTPUT moving coil (MC) cartridges or as a line input (same specification as inputs 2
-5). The switch sited on the back panel in between the Input 1 sockets selects the
particular input required. If you are using input 1 as a phono input the switch has to
be in the 'out' position and the tonearm (phono) leads must be connected to the
phono sockets on the left (looking at the back). If input 1 is being used as a line input
the switch has to be in the 'in' position and the line source must be connected to the
phono sockets on the right (looking at the back).
The phono/line Input 1 can be used as two
separate inputs. These inputs are selected by
the switch sited on the back panel. A typical
example would be two turntables where one
turntables is connected directly to the left
turntable phono sockets and the other is
connected, (via a suitable phono amplifier) to
the right line phono sockets. Note: The unit connected to the right line phono
sockets can be any 'line level' source. However, if connecting an external phono
stage (such as the Rega Fono or Aria) it is recommended to use this input as it
incorporates isolated grounding to reduce noise and will improve performance.
