Names and Functions

18.  Signal ground terminal  

(SIGNAL GROUND)

Is a ground terminal for devices to be connected to this unit. 
This terminal is used to reduce noise when other devices 
are connected, and should be connected to an analog play-
er or a tone arm. This terminal is not designed for safety.

19. Phono input terminal (PHONO)

Is an RCA input terminal to connect an analog player.

Some record players have internal phono equalizers. If that 
is the case, turn off the equalizer amplifier within the play-
er.

Do not connect a CD player or other devices whose output 
level is high to this terminal. Normal playback cannot be 
provided due to sound crack.

20. Line input terminals
 

(CD, LINE-1, LINE-2, LINE-3)

Are used for high-level signal inputs from a CD/DVD player, 
a SACD player, a tuner, a video deck, a TV, and other such 
devices. These input terminals offer the same functions.

21. Record output terminals (REC OUT)

Are used to transmit output signals for recording onto the 
recorder. These terminals are connected to the line input 
terminal of the recorder. The input signal selected with the 
input selector is outputted.

Do not insert shortpin plugs into REC OUT. No sound will 
be generated.
