To  switch  between  moving  magnet  (mm)  and  moving  coil  (mc)  gain  setting  move  the 
black slide switch to the appropriate position. Note that high output mc cartridges should 
be used with the slide switch in the mm position. The Pharaoh ships in moving magnet 
configuration. Table 1 provides the cartridge loading options available. 
DIP-1  provides  loading  for  the  left  channel  and  DIP-2  for  the  right  channel.  Push  the 
small switches (1-4) to the right to engage the loading as required.

OPERATION OF THE PHARAOH 

 

Powering  up  the  System

  -  After  all  proper  connections  have  been  made,  you  are  now 

ready to turn the Pharaoh on. The main power on/off switch is on the  rear of the amp. 
This “vacation switch” can be left on at all times and keeps the solid state portion of the 
amplifier in a standby state. The Pharaoh uses very little power while in standby and will 
sound its very best if you leave this switch on at all times. If you are going to be away 
for an extended time period (vacation) you can turn it off. The yellow LED on the front 
panel  indicates  that  this  switch  is  turned  on.  The  power  button  on  the  front  panel 
energizes  the  tube  section  and  takes  the  solid  state  circuitry  out  of  standby  mode.  The 
blue LED indicates that the amplifier is in fully operational mode.  
 
The Pharaoh uses a “smart” turn on sequence that minimizes turn on transients and also 
lets  the  tubes  warm  up  gently.  When  the  power  button  is  depressed  the  blue  light  will 
come  on  and  after  approximately  thirty  seconds  the  standby  light  will  go  out.  You  are 
then ready to listen to music. Even with the timed turn on sequence it is best to turn your 
equipment on as follows: 
  
1)

 

Turn on all sources (CD, tuner, etc.) that you will be using.  

2)

 

Power up the Pharaoh 

3)

 

Select listening source and play music 

 
When powering down your system turn the amplifier off first. 
 
Note  – 

Important!

  After  turning  off  the  amplifier,  wait  at  least  one  minute  to  turn  it 

back on.  Do not turn it on then off and then on again in quick succession.  Doing this 
will not allow the power supply to discharge between on/off cycling and may result in 
transient noises.
