Operation

Settings Menu

The PH9 has been designed with a simple, 

intuitive menu to allow adjustment 

of the various features of the phono 

preamplifier. To adjust the settings, press 

the ‘MENU’ button on the remote or 

front panel. If no further action is taken 

with the preamplifier or remote for five 

seconds, the PH9 reverts back to its 

normal operation screen. Continuing to 

press the ‘MENU’ button will step you 

through the different setting options: 

While a menu item is displayed, press 

‘OPTION’ on the front panel or remote 

to adjust the settings of that particular 

selecton. After making the appropriate 

change, pressing the ‘ENTER’ button 

will confirm the new setting, and 

the display will show ‘OKAY’ for 

five seconds before reverting back 

to the normal operation screen.

Note

For the following menu settings, please refer 

to the menu tree on page 14 for examples 

of the front panel display.

The ‘MENU’, ‘OPTION’, and ‘ENTER’ buttons 

(found on the front panel and remote) 

are used to make changes to the menu 

settings. Note that the ‘MENU’ button 

can also be used to back out of a menu 

selection, returning to the main settings 

options.

Auto Shutdown

The PH9 is equipped with an auto shut-off 

feature, designed to turn the preamplifier 

off after a period of time during which it is 

not used. The auto shut-off feature senses 

any interaction with the preamplifier, such 

as button presses, remote usage, etc.

To change/disengage the auto shutdown 

feature, press the ‘MENU’ button until 

the ‘AUTO SHUTDOWN’ screen is 

displayed. Pressing the ‘OPTION’ button 

on the front panel or on the remote, 

the PH9 will scroll through the options 

for ‘off’ (no auto shutdown), or 1-8 

hours. Once you have made a selection, 

press ‘ENTER’ to confirm. The display 

will show ‘OKAY’ before reverting back 

to the normal operation screen.

Note

The auto shutdown feature is not in the 

signal path of the phono preamplifier 

and has no deleterious sonic effect.
