Adjusting the Capacitance Trim
Each
cartridge
has
a
specified
load
capacitance
into
which
it
performs
best.
To
determine
the
capacitive
load
on
the
cartridge,
the
capacitance
of
the
amplifier’s
phono
input
circuitry
and
the
capacitance
of
the
turntable’s
tonearm
and
output
cord
must
be
added.
Often,
this
amount
is
less
than
that
required
by
the
cartridge.
The
capacitance
trim
feature
allows
you
to
add
100pF,
200pF
or
300pF
to
the
normal
amount,
so
that
nearly
all
cartridges
can
be
accommodated.
Level
Less
When the CAP. TRIM
is properly adjusted.
Over
10kHz
Frequency
Select the optimum load capacitance for your MM cartridge
of turntable connected to the PHONO 1 (MM) or PHONO 2
(MM)/(MC) jacks by referring to the table below.
Rec. Cartridge Load* CAP. TRIM Position
200pF or less normal
200 — 300pF +100pf
300 — 400pF +200pf
4OOpF or more +300pf
*Consult the phono cartridge owner's manual to find its
recommended capacitive load.
