Making Connections to your P/PH-100
Input Connections
Connect your turntable’s left and right channel plugs to the left and right input jacks on your P/PH-100.
Connect your turntable’s separate ground wire to the GND (ground) terminal on your P/PH-100.
Output Connections
Make sure your system power is turned off before connecting to your preamp. As a further precaution,
turn its volume control to its minimum position.
Connect the left and right output jacks on your P/PH-100 to the desired line (or “high level") input on
your preamplifier or receiver. Line level inputs are typically called CD, Tuner, Aux, Tape Play.
If your preamp or receiver has a tape monitor input, you can also use this, provided it is not already
connected to your tape deck.
After making connections, make sure the plugs are inserted securely and the GND terminal is tight to
prevent cables or ground wire from becoming loose and disconnected. Note: in rare instances,
connecting the ground wire may increase rather than decrease hum.
AC Connections
Connect the supplied AC cord from the AC inlet of the P/PH-100 to a nearby AC wall outlet or other
AC outlet. Your P/PH-100 is intended to be left on at all times and its power consumption is
insignificant. You don’t need to worry about switching it on and off with the rest of your system.
