        CONNECTION TO THE AMPLIFIER 

The record player has gold plated female RCA phono sockets (19) so you can substitute the interconnect cables 
supplied with higher quality cables such as the Pro-Ject Connect it C/CC/Si  interconnect cables for 
connection to the amplifier if you wish. Use the Phono input (sometimes labelled gram, disc or RIAA) on your 
amplifier. Make sure that the phono input offers correct matching and amplification for the type of cartridge 
used. Line inputs (like CD, Tuner, Tape or Video) are not suitable. 
Take care about connecting the left and right channel correctly. The 

RIGHT CHANNEL 

is usually marked 

RED

, the LEFT CHANNEL BLACK or WHITE. Check the manual of your amplifier for relevant information. An 

earthing wire may be connected to the screw terminal between the sockets if you encounter humming 

problems. 
If your amplifier does not have an input suitable for phono cartridges, a separate phono amplifier stage for 
MM or MC cartridges is required. It has to be connected between record player and a free line level input of 
the amplifier.
