magnet (MM) type cartridge.
Use an analog audio cable to connect the AV receiver’s
PHONO IN L/R jacks to the audio output on your turn-
table.
Notes:
• If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the
AV receiver’s GND screw. With some turntables, con-
necting the ground wire may produce an audible hum.
If this happens, disconnect it.
• If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type car-
tridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head
amp or MC transformer. Connect your turntable to the
head amp or transformer, and connect that to the AV
receiver’s PHONO IN L/R jacks.
• You can also use a phono equalizer to connect a turn-
table with an MC-type cartridge. See the phono equal-
izer’s manual for details.
