Connections
Connect the turntable's RCA phono cable to the phono
input of your amplifier. Check that the plugs are con-
nected with the correct polarity.
In accordance with RIAA standards, vinyl records are
cut with pre-emphasis. The operation of a turntable
therefore requires the use of a phono stage for equal-
isation. If your amplifier does not have a phono input,
you will need to connect a dedicated phono stage
(such as the Thorens MM series phono stages) be-
tween the turntable and the amplifier. Please contact
your Thorens dealer or distributor for further advice.
The integrated earth wire is used to establish an elec-
trical connection to earth. Connect the wire to the earth
screw on the amplifier. If your amplifier does not have
an earth screw, you can attach the wire to the side of an
unused input socket.

If you can hear a hum in the speakers that increases
as you increase the overall volume, then the earth
connection may be faulty. Make sure that the earth
wire is firmly connected. If the problem persists, try
connecting the wire to a different spot.
