Sound Optimisation Tips - Lehmannaudio Black Cube SE II Bedienungsanleitung

46 Black Cube SE II
4 | DIP switch A on the bottom side of the device
EN
With these switches you can choose between different gain settings and also
select the input impedance for MC systems. Common setting options for various
systems are available in the chart on page 42 f.
5 | R103/R203
Available custom impedance plug connections for activation with the DIP switches
for the channels (respectively no. 3). An impedance/capacity activated here is
switched in parallel to all other impedances/capacities activated by switches and
the 47 kohms/100 pF.
6 | R102/R202
These are free hardwire plug-in slots for additional impedances/capacitors with
immediate effect and no need for activation via switches. A resistor/capacitor
plugged in here will be put in parallel with all other switch-activated impedances/
capacitors and the 47 kohms/100 pF.

Sound optimisation tips

The Black Cube SE II can only be as good as the signal supplied
by the turntable or pick-up system. Since playing back a record
consists of mechanical sampling with many important influenc-
ing variables, we provide some sound optimisation tips here. For
high-end record players in particular, you should consult your
dealer for the required service and adjustments.
1 | Adjusting the pick-up arm geometry and system should always be performed by
a specialist. In case of incorrect settings, the effects range from sound problems to
one-sided and therefore premature wear of the system. Good specialist dealers have
special measuring and adjusting equipment. It is much more accurate than what may
be included with the pick-up system.
2 | On record players with a sub-chassis, the vibration behaviour should also be
optimised by an expert. Sound improvements are possible here as well.
3 | Using a decoupling mat that contributes to better mechanical separation
between the record and turntable can further improve the sound quite significantly.
4 | Special attention should also be paid to the chosen cable materials and
assembly . This applies in particular to the system cables (headshell), the cables from
the pick-up to the Black Cube SE II and the cables to the downstream pre-amplifier.
