Important information – phono input
Please read the following carefully
before
installing the unit in your system – your
unit may need to be reconfigured by your Linn retailer.
The Majik-I integrated amplifier includes a phono input, which allows connection
of a phono turntable. Even if you do not have a turntable, please consider the
following points:
LINE INPUT 6 / PHONO can be configured to operate as a moving-magnet (MM)
or moving-coil (MC) phono stage, or an extra ‘line-level’ input. See note below for
an explanation of these terms.
When shipped, LINE INPUT 6 / PHONO is factory-set to operate as an MM phono
stage.
If you wish LINE INPUT 6 / PHONO to operate in line-level mode, this requires an
internal hardware reconfiguration, which must be carried out by an authorised
Linn retailer. If you require LINE INPUT 6 / PHONO to operate in moving-coil (MC)
mode, this requires an MC Upgrade Kit (available from your Linn retailer) and an
internal hardware reconfiguration, which must be carried out by an authorised
Linn retailer. Dismantling or adjustment by persons other than Linn appointed
personnel could invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
If you wish to know the current configuration of LINE INPUT 6 / PHONO, this can
be viewed in the Majik-I setup menus (see
Setup Menus
, page 16).
Notes:
Unlike line-level inputs, phono stages require to amplify extremely small signal
levels, so if they are not treated with great care they can be susceptible to noise
and signal degradation. Linn have therefore designed the phono stage as a
hard-wired circuit, rather than a switchable or software configurable adjustment.
This has been done in order to optimise audio performance and remove
components such as switches, which could potentially degrade the signal
in this most precise of circuits.
‘Moving-magnet’ and ‘moving-coil’ are the two types of phono cartridge available.
If you have a turntable and are not sure which type of cartridge you have, consult
the cartridge packaging, its manufacturer’s published information or the retailer
from whom it was purchased. ‘Line-level’ inputs are for connection of line-level
(fixed volume) products such as CD players, radio tuners, DVD players, video
recorders, etc.
Important information – protection
Operation
If the power amplifier section overheats or detects an overload condition, it will
shut down in order to protect itself and the loudspeaker drive unit(s) to which it is
connected.
Duration
Once the condition that caused the amplifier to activate its protection has passed,
the amplifier will automatically resume normal operation. How long the power
amplifier section remains in protection will depend on the cause. If the protection
operates for more than a few seconds it could indicate overheating which may
take some minutes of cooling to rectify.
A long delay (10 minutes or more) could indicate a persistent overload condition
(e.g. one of the components connected to the amplifier is faulty). Try switching
the Majik-I off at the mains for 30 minutes or so and try again. If it remains non-
operational, consult your retailer who can examine your system and determine the
source of the problem.
