Setup Cartr.: 1
Load Preset
If you use one of the pre-loaded cartridges you can load this directly which then automatically sets up
the ADC to this cartridge (gain, capacitance, impedance and DSP cartridge fi lter). If you have a different
cartridge, you need to make these settings manually.
If you at a later stage wish to de-select a pre-loaded cartridge, simply select ‘Default’ in this menu to set
this cartridge back to the factory default settings.
DSP Cart. Filter (only available for pre-loaded cartridges)
The DSP Cartridge fi lter compensates the frequency response of the pre-loaded cartridges.
So, listening without the fi lter gives you the ‘raw’ sound of the cartridge whereas listening with the fi lter
compensates for non-linearities.
When selecting a pre-loaded cartridge the DSP cartridge fi lter is default switched on.
50 kHz Zero
As can be seen from the de-emphasis curve (fi g 6) the treble rolls of from the F 5 point.
If the 50kHz Zero setting is set on you will add the F6 point at 50kHz resulting in a less pronounced treble
roll of.
Cartridge Gain
The Cartridge Gain can be used in two ways:
The higher the setting the better the S/N ratio. It should of course always be observed that no
clipping occurs!
Allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the actual cartridge to match other cartridges and/or sources.
The Cartridge Gain can be adjusted from +28 to +82dB in 0.1db steps. This allows you to achieve full
scale output even with cartridges of very low sensitivity.
Please refer to the specifi cations of the cartridge and then use the table in fi g. 5 as a guide when setting
the Cartridge Gain.
Setting the Cartridge Gain too high will result in distortion. So, always use your ears
when adjusting this. If the ‘Phono Clipping’ message appears on the display when
you play back a record you need to decrease the gain.
The easiest/fastest way to adjust the Cartridge Gain is to press and hold the Left/
Right arrow on the remote control.
When you save the Cartridge Gain setting, the sound will be muted for approximately 5 seconds until
the new gain is stabilized.
