Setup
Placement of the Turntable
Select a location, where you would like to place your turntable. Take care that the construction
below the turntable is solid enough to carry the heavy weight of the turntable. Do not place the
turntable close to loudspeakers, to avoid acoustic coupling. There should be also no direct sun to the
turntable. This can cause damage or bleaching of the wooden surface.
For correct horizontal placement, the turntable is equipped with 4 adjustable feet. You can check
placement with a spirit level. The feet have a micro thread. It can be leveled by turning the foot.
Connection of Phono Cable
The phono cable (item

in the delivery content) must be connected to the tonearm. Below the
tonearm, there is a big hole in the bottom plate of the turntable. Through this hole, you can see the 5
pin connector of the tonearm, refer picture below:
Lift up the turntable, to insert the 5-pin connector of the phono cable into the tonearm connector.
Place the turntable back at your table or rack.
The other end of the phono cable has standard RCA plugs for the left and right stereo channel and an
additional grounding wire. The RCA plugs must be connected to your Amplifier at the “Phono” input.
The grounding wire must be connected to the ground clamp at the phono section of your amplifier.
The turntable is equipped with a low output MC-Cartridge. Please ensure that your phono section
supports low output MC-Cartridges.
