Connecting headphones to the Pharaoh:
The Pharaoh headphone jack provides for a ¼” or 6mm headphone connector. If you
have headphones with a different size connector, you can use a suitable adapter. The
headphone button will put the Pharaoh in a partial standby mode with only the tubes and
low voltage solid state circuits in operation.
Connecting the Pharaoh to the power outlet:
Connect the IEC end of the detachable power cord provided to the amplifier, and plug
the opposite end into corresponding outlet. It is recommended that both the Pharaoh and
all sources (CD, tuner, etc.) be plugged into the same wall outlet if possible (perhaps
using a power outlet strip). This is to avoid creating a ground loop.
Connecting a subwoofer to the Pharaoh:
The Pharaoh has one pair of variable outputs that can be used to drive a subwoofer. The
variable outputs are buffered in order to eliminate any interaction between the
subwoofer circuitry and the Pharaoh.
Connecting a turntable to the Pharaoh:
The phono section provided in the Pharaoh is highly flexible and will accommodate both
high output moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges as well as low
output MC cartridges. Cartridge loading is also adjustable via DIP switches located
inside the amplifier.
Note - All changes to the phono configuration should be done with the amplifier off and
the standby switch off (The amp is completely shut down).
