Turntable (MM) with no Phono Preamp Built-in
The AV receiver’s PHONO IN is designed for use with a mov-
ing magnet (MM) type cartridge.
Use an analog audio cable to connect the AV receiver’s PHONO
IN L/R jacks to the audio output on your turntable.
Notes:
• If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the AV
receiver’s GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the
ground wire may produce an audible hum.
If this happens, disconnect it.
• If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge,
you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC
transformer. Connect your turntable to the head amp or trans-
former, and connect that to the AV receiver’s PHONO IN L/R
jacks.
• You can also use a phono equalizer to connect a turntable
with an MC-type cartridge. See your phono equalizer’s man-
ual for details.
