IMPORTANT INFORMATION...
Please read this entire manual before connecting the unit to
your system.
For optimum performance:
1.
Always make sure that AC power is OFF while making
any connections.
2.
Do not force the platter to stop moving while the
motor is engaged. Quality slipmats should be used to
hold records in position. Forcing the motor to stop
can damage the motor assembly.
3.
Never use spray cleaners or oils on the slide control.
Residues cause excessive dirt build-up and this will
void your warranty. In normal use slide controls can
last for many years. If they malfunction (usually
because of a dirty or dusty environment)
4.
Never attempt to make any adjustments or repairs other
than those described in this manual. Take the TT-100 to
your dealer or to an authorized
Service Center.
5.
Do not place the unit in a location where it will be
exposed to direct sun light or near a heating appliance.
6.
Do not place the unit in a location where there is high
humidity or a lot of dust.
7.
Cartridge may pick up slight sound pressure or vibrations
of the speakers coming along the floor or through the air
resulting in howling. Find a location, which is very stable
and free of vibration.
8.
The legs have functions for adjusting the height of the unit
itself. Adjust the legs to stabilize the main body
horizontally.
GENERAL SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
•
Use appropriate cables throughout your system: Quality
shielded audio cables and terminated shielded video
cables, low-capacitance preferred. Speaker cables must be
14-gauge minimum; 12- or 10-gauge is better.
•
Be sure plugs and jacks are tightly mated. Loose
connections can cause hum, noise or intermittent that
could easily damage your speakers.
•
Reliability will be enhanced through the use of banana
connectors on the speaker wires. Observe correct speaker
wire polarity. If in doubt, consult your
dealer
or a qualified technician.
•
Take care to connect only one cable at a time. Pay
attention to the color-coded, labeled Input and Output
jacks.
•
ALWAYS remember
:
“TURN AMPS ON LAST AND
OFF FIRST”.
Begin with master faders or volume
controls on minimum and the amplifier gain/input
control(s) down. Wait 8 to 10 seconds before turning up
the volume. This prevents transients, which may cause
severe speaker damage.
•
Use restraint when operating controls. Try to move them
slowly. Rapid adjustments could damage speakers due to
amplifier clipping.
•
Avoid amplifier “clipping” at all costs: this occurs when
the red LEDs (usually on the front panel of most
professional power amplifiers) start flashing. “Clipping” is
when the power amplifier is distorting and working
beyond it’s limits. Amplifier distortion is THE major
cause of speaker failure.
•
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to
rain or moisture.
Never place cans of beer, soda, glasses
of water or anything wet on top of the turntable!
A NOTE ON CABLES:
Quality cable makes a big difference in audio
fidelity and punch. See your
dealer
or an electronics or audio specialist store if
you are not sure which cables to get.
