Unbalanced connection :
An unbalanced tone arm cable is normally coaxial with one conductor and a shielding.
Cables with two inner wires can be converted simply by separating the shield from minus.
Unbalanced cables should be connected to the RCA plug. The RCA inner pin is connected to inner
wire, the outer ring to the shielding.
MM cartridges must be connected in the unbalanced mode.
At unbalanced connections the adjustments has to be made at the left 12 pole Dip switch.
The right Dip switch No. 12 has to be ON to connect the minus input to ground.
Please connect the ground cable of your turntable to the (black) pole terminal on the back panel.
