2.0) INTERNAL CONFIGURATION SETTINGS

2.1) BASIC GAIN SETTINGS

GAIN SWITCHES
To Set the Gain, there are two sets of four dip switches, located on the
Phonomena II's back panel (one set each for the left and right channels).
Refer to your phonograph cartridge's instruction manual for the suggested
Gain setting. Factory Settings are always 40dB for Gain. Lower Gains (40 and
44dB) are effective for moving-magnet cartridges or very high output
moving-coil cartridges (>2.0mV). Medium Gain settings (46 and 50dB) are
ideal for medium-output moving-coils (.9-1.5mV). High Gain settings work
well with low-output moving-coil cartridges. To change settings, use a non-
metallic object to push the switches UP for the ON position.
Always let the unit settle for 60 seconds after any configuration changes are
made before listening. Slowly raise the volume after making any change.
This will ensure that the unit is stable and will not damage your system if the
configuration is not set correctly.
