POWERING ON & STARTUP PROCEDURES

POWER CONNECTIONS

Once all input and output signal connections are made, you can
begin to make the power connections.
PHONO STAGE POWER CONNECTIONS
Plug the detachable Power Cord into the Power Cord socket (D)
on the back of the PHONO 1 chassis. The PHONO 1 phono
stage are configured for the line voltage in the country in which it
is sold. See the shipping box or the rear of the chassis for voltage
settings. If a different operating voltage is required, please contact
an authorized Sonic Frontiers dealer or the factory directly.
Figure 5 - Align socket pins to corresponding holes and push together.
STARTUP PROCEDURE
1. If you have yet to finally place your new Phono 1 phono stage,
do so preferably not more than 3' away from the turntable and con-
nect the turntable leads to the appropriate input jacks (F). Connect
the ground lead to the grounding binding post (H). Connect the
phono stage outputs (E) to your allocated or desired line level pre-
amplifier inputs. Ensure that all the connections are solid.
2. Connect the AC line cord provided to the AC Power Inlet (D),
and plug the male end into a wall AC outlet or power-bar.
3. Press the power switch to the "ON" (IN) position. The centrally
located LED (A) should be lit. After approximately 40 second
delay, you should hear a "click" indicating the CUE/MUTE relay
energizing. If the rest of the audio system is powered up, slowly
raise the volume control of the line level preamplifier. You should
hear a soft "hiss" emanating from the speakers, indicating opera-
tion. Upon playback of records, normal operation will be verified.
If you have any problems, see the trouble shooting section, or
call your dealer or our Technical Support representative at (905)
829-3838 for assistance.

SHUTTING OFF POWER
W A R N I N G
Always turn "off" your power amplifier and/or
line level preamp first, before turning off the
phono stage. Failure to do so may cause a
transient pulse to be delivered through the
amplifier to the speakers.
When shutting off power from the phono stage, it is good
practice to mute and then turn off the line level preamplifier first
before switching off the phono stage. Following this procedure
will ensure that no transient pulse will reach the power amplifier.
