1. CONNECTING
TYR 2 TYR 2
PHONO-STAGE TURNTABLE
Connect the DIN / RCA / XLR
connectors to the outputs on
your turntable and inputs on your
phono-stage. For RCA and XLR
configurations, the connector that
shows “HOLO:PLUG” engraved in
white denotes right channel, and
the one engraved in black denotes
the left channel.
Please note that Nordost tonearm
cables are directional. To correctly
orient your cable, make sure that
any arrows found on the breakout
blocks are pointing towards your
phono-stage.
Each unique system has its own
ideal grounding configuration.
You’ll need to figure out what
works best for your system through
experimentation...
3. ADDITIONAL / SHIELD GROUNDING
When needed, ‘Detchable Ground
Wires’ can be inserted into the
cable’s breakout blocks, allowing
you to use the cable’s TSC as an
additional ground loop prevention.
If you are experiencing any noise
(hum) while listening to your
turntable set-up, you are most
likely suffering from a ground loop.
In order to eliminate this problem,
you must address the grounding
between your turntable and
phono-stage. Most turntables and
phono-stages are equipped with
ground screws on their chassis.
Connect the Bond Ground Wire
(the wire terminated with spade
connectors that is permanently
attached to the tonearm cable) to

the ground screws on both your
turntable and your phono-stage.
This connection will bond the two
chassis together, creating a secure, low noise connection between the
two components.

First, play some music without any of the
Detachable Ground Wires attached and
see how it sounds.
Then, try inserting one of the Detachable
Ground Wires to your cable on the end
closest to the turntable. Connect the
spade of the Detachable Ground Wire to
the ground post on your turntable.
Next, if you have a ground option on
the phono-stage end, disconnect the
Detachable Ground Wire from the
turntable end of the tonearm cable,
and insert it into the phono-stage end
instead. Connect the spade of the
Detachable Ground Wire to the phono-
stage ground, and listen again.
Finally, if applicable, insert both
Detachable Ground Wires to the two
ends of your cable, connect them to
ground on the turntable and the phono-
stage, and listen one last time.
Based on your findings, configure
whichever set-up had the least noise.
