5) MC gain pot. Set the MC stage gain by this pot as indicated by the app or following
your preferences. Gain can be selected 3dB to 30dB, which adds to the MM gain.
6) Chassis post. Connect the earth wire of the turntable’s cable. It can also be used to
connect the NASH to a good earth to reduce stray noises pickup.
7) MC input resistance pot. Set the MC stage input impedance by this pot as indicated
by the app or following your cartridge’s manual indications. Resistance can be selected 10
Ohms to 1000 Ohms.
8) MC input. Connect a low output cartridge (typically less than 1mV). Female RCA.
9) MM input. Connect a medium or high output cartridge (typically 1-5mV). Female RCA.
10) MM input resistance and capacitance selection DIP-switches. When using the MM
input, set these switches according to the app or following your cartridge’s manual
indications. See chapter 10 for details.
11) Line inputs. Connect line-level sources like tuners, tape decks, TV’s. Female RCA.
12) Outputs. Connect to your preamplifier or integrated amplifier. Female RCA.
13) Power mode switch. Allows for choosing the way the NASH behaves when power is
applied. See chapter 8 for details.
14) External supply input. To improve the NASH performance, power it by the Van Der
Graaf MkII connecting one of its 4-pin outputs to this input using the cable provided with
the Van Der Graaf MkII.
