and
R
for

channel'
They
are
to
be
connected
to
the
appropriate
phono
input
of
an
amPlifier
or
receiver.
The
separate
wire
should
be
attached
to
the
grounding
screw
at
the
chassis
of
the
amplifier'
lt
establishes
a
common
ground
and
thus
prevents hum
introduction
(Figure 16).
Amplifiers
with
a
5
pin
DIN
input
connector
require
an
adapter
cable
(RCA female
to
DIN
male)'
available
at
your
dealer.
lf
hum
should
be
heard
in
the
loudspeakers
when
the
turntable
is
in
use,
check
that
the
cartridge
wand
is
firmly
attached
to
the
bearing
assembly
and
that
the
connections
to
the
amplifier
or
receiver
and
to
the
pickup
cartridge
are
secure'
Hum
may
also
be
produced
by
the
close
proximity of
amplifiers
or
other
appliances'
Your
THORENS
dealer
or
service
represen-
tative
should
be
consulted
if

Adapter
@
'
Verify
that
the
line
voltage
of
the
adapter
de-
livered
with
your
turntable
corresponds
to
the
line
voltage
intended
for
use.
Insert
the
pluS
@
at
the
end
of

Installation
The
turntable
should
be
installed
in
a
location
allowing
the
dust
cover
to
be
opened
freely'
Avoid
the
immediate
vicinity
of
heating
units.
Placement
of
the
turntable
on
a
solid
cabinet
and
out
of
direct
line
with
the
loudspeakers
will
minimize
the
possibility of
acoustic
vibrations
impair-
ing
reproduction
qualitY'
One
should
avoid
a
position
such
as
shown
in
figure
17.
When
connecting
the
turntable
to
other
hi-fi
equip-
ment,
care
should
be
taken
that
mains
transformers
incorporated
within
any
ancillary
units
be
not
situated
too
close
to
the
pickup
cartridge'
Magnetic
cartridges
are
sensitive
to
the
influence
of
magnetic
fields
of
mains
trans-
formers
and
may
produce
hum
as
a
result'
