Optional Phono Stage - Absoluta Sound and Space Partenope User Manual

Optional Phono Stage

There are two optional phono stage printed circuit boards that
can be installed inside Partenope and will allow you to connect
it to a turntable.
These printed circuit boards are designed to offer maximum
connection flexibility. Their configuration must be made by
Absoluta of by another authorized technician.
The phono stage PCB accept signals both from MM and MC
pick-ups. The JP103/JP203 bridge allows to select the gain of
the phono stage based on the voltage of the output of the pick-
up.
When the bridge is not active the gain is 40dB ( for high output
MM or MC pick-ups); when the bridge is active the gain is
60dB (for low output MC pick-ups).
Two groups of micro switches (JP101/JP201 and JP102/JP202)
Allow to select the impedance and the input capacity of the
phono stage. Please see the chart below:
