4 Installation
4.1 Unpacking
Unpack your P1 phono stage and store the packaging for future use. The P1 phono stage is fairly heavy, so have someone to help
you when removing it from its packaging.
4.2 Removing the transportation screw
The transformers must be secured during transportation to avoid internal damage. The transportation screw is located at the
bottom of the unit. Always keep the unit horizontal while fitting or removing the transportation screw.
Security screw location
(1) Transportation screw. Must be fitted for transport and should be removed during installation
4.3 Positioning your unit
Position the P1 unit on a stable and sturdy base. Make sure air is able to flow freely around the unit.
For best transmission and immunity to external vibration noise, CH Precision recommends to rest the P1 on the provided steel
spikes. Insert a spike into each foot. Please use the provided screwdriver to screw the spikes into the feet and make the level
adjustments.
Optional CH support discs have been designed to optimally couple the spikes with the rack on which the P1 sits, simultaneously
ensuring vibration suppression as well as decoupling from external vibration sources. Please refer to your local dealer for more
information on the CH Support Discs.
