Onkyo P-308 Instruction Manual

treble according to the listening room acoustics,
etc. When the treble control is turned all the
way to the left (— 10), it operates as a high cut
filter. Use this position when you want to sup-
press annoying high frequency noise such as
static and tape hiss.
Cartridge Selector Switch (CARTRIDGE
SELECTOR)
Switch this selector to match the type of phono
cartridge being used. Because a sudden increase
in volume level may occur when switching this
selector, always turn the volume control [6]
all the way down before switching to a different
position.
MM: When using an MM type cartridge, switch
to either of the MM positions depending
on the cartridge’s impedance rating. If the
impedance is not specified, switch to the
47 kohms position.
MC: When using an MC type cartridge, switch
the selector to the MC position which
most nearly corresponds to the output im-
pedance of the cartridge being used. How-
ever, if a step-up transformer is used,
switch to one of the MM positions.
Line-2 Input Terminal (LINE-2)
This pair of terminals is wired in parallel with the
LINE-2 terminals on the rear panel. Use only one
set at a time; do not try to use the front and
rear terminals simultaneously.

System Connections and
Rear Panel Facilities
Read the instruction manuals of any components
to be connected to this unit carefully before mak-
ing any connections.
Confirm that the L and R pin-type cables are
properly connected to the left and right terminals.
If they are not, the left and right channels will be
reversed.
Also confirm that all pin-plugs are firmly secured.
\f a plug becomes loose and proper grounding is
lost, an unpleasant booming noise is generated.
Furthermore, always handle cables with adequate
care, holding the plug at its base, not the cable it-
self, when connecting and disconnecting.
Although the turntable ground lead is usually con-
nected to the amplifier GND terminal, some turnt-
ables do not require a ground connection.
Keep the pin-type cables as far away as possible
from the power cord and power transformer area.
Otherwise, hum and other unwanted noise may
be generated.
