PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION
Ventilation through and around your Plinius Jarrah Phono Preamplifier should be kept unimpeded, so
ensure that the heat vents (slots in the lid) are not covered or restricted in any way. Also refrain from
placing the Plinius Jarrah on top of other electronic equipment to avoid RF interference being introduced
to the highly sensitive phono stage circuitry.
The Plinius Jarrah design incorporates a very high level of mechanical de-coupling of the input and
output. However, it can still be influenced by acoustical feedback in the operating environment. The use
of acoustic cones or a suitably spiked preamplifier stand or table, may further enhance the performance of
this preamplifier. Consult your PLINIUS
PLINIUS PLINIUS PLINIUS dealer for further advice if required.
MAINS VOLTAGE CONNECTION
Firstly, check that the mains supply voltage printed on the rear of this preamplifier power supply is similar
to the mains supply voltage in your area. If in doubt, please consult your PLINIUS
PLINIUS PLINIUS PLINIUS dealer.
Mains supply power connection is via the supplied plug-in lead. A standard IEC socket connects the
mains power at the preamplifier end, while a local mains plug is required at the wall end.
The wiring code used inside all Plinius product is:
Gree
Gree Gree
Green to Earth/Ground
n to Earth/Ground n to Earth/Ground
n to Earth/Ground
Blue to Neutral Blue to Neutral Blue to Neutral Blue to Neutral
Brown to Phase/Live
Brown to Phase/Live Brown to Phase/Live Brown to Phase/Live
Should a ‘local’ plug need fitting to the wall end of the lead, ensure that a suitably qualified service
technician wires the plug correctly.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT POWER UP YOUR PREAMPLIFIER UNTIL YOU
HAVE CONNECTED YOUR INPUT/OUTPUTS CORRECTLY
FOR YOUR SYSTEM, (AS EXPLAINED IN THE NEXT
SECTION).
