Amplifier
A
PHONO EQ (audio output setting)
switch
ON
Signals that have been amplified by the built-
in phono equalizer amp, which supports MM
cartridges, are output from the analog audio out-
put connectors (L/R).
THRU
The MC or MM cartridge signal is output directly
through the analog audio output connectors (L/R).
Use this when connecting to equipment that has
PHONO inputs.
o When shipped new from the factory, this is set to
ON.
o Set this to ON if a device is connected to the
OPTICAL digital audio output connector or the
USB port.
CAUTION
When set to ON, if connected to the PHONO inputs of
an amplifier, for example, the output from speakers and
headphones will be very loud, which could damage
equipment or harm hearing.

E
Grounding connector (|)
Use the grounding wire of the included RCA audio
cable to connect this connector to the grounding con-
nector of the amplifier, for example.
o This is NOT an electrical safety ground.
o If connecting the grounding wire of the audio
cable to the grounding connector of this unit does
not reduce noise, disconnect the grounding wire
and check the sound again. Use the method (con-
nected/disconnected) that has the least noise.
F
Analog audio output connectors (L/R)
These output analog audio signals.
The PHONO EQ switch setting changes the type of
output signal.
Use the included RCA audio cable to connect other
equipment to the output connectors of this unit.
G
OPTICAL digital audio output
connector
This outputs digital audio.
Connect this to the optical audio input connector of a
device capable of receiving digital audio.
Use a commercially-available TOSLINK optical
digital cable to make the connection.
H
DC input connector
After completing all other connections, connect the
included AC adapter to this connector.
Confirm that the power plug of the AC adapter is
plugged into a power outlet.
o Unplug the power cord from the outlet when you
are not planning to use the unit for an extended
period of time.
o Do not use any AC adapter other than the one
included.
V Be sure to connect the power cord to
an AC outlet that supplies the correct
voltage. Connection to an outlet that
supplies incorrect voltage could cause
fire or electric shock.
Hold the power plug when plugging it
into an outlet or unplugging it. Never
pull or yank on the power cord.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet
