Please connect provided power cord to the DS-EQ2, and attach to an appropriately
grounded mains power socket. Attach left (L) and right (R) input audio channels (left and
right RCA connectors) plus ground connector from DS Audio cartridge and turntable to the
DS-EQ2. Attach left (L) and right (R) output audio channels (left and right RCA connectors) to

When turned on using the main power switch on the back of the DS-EQ2, the DS-EQ2 will go
into full power on mode. Power will be delivered to the DS Audio cartridge (cartridge will be
