ATTENTION!
Never connect the output of the Black Cube/Black Cube SE to
the phono input of another device. This could damage the phono
stage or speakers.
4 | Operating mode display (LED)
When the LED is lit up, the Black Cube/Black Cube SE is operational. The device
does not have a power switch.
5 | Grommet for the external power supply (Black Cube)/PWX power supply
(Black Cube SE)
The four-pin Neutrik XLR connector is plugged into the enclosed power supply.
Please do never pull off or plug in this connection during operation.
By purchasing a PWX power supply the Black Cube is upgradeable to the Black
Cube SE.

Putting into operation

To put your Black Cube/Black Cube SE into operation, you need
information about your pick-up system.
Two details are important: Are we talking about an MM (moving magnet) or MC (mo-
ving coil) system? What is the required connection resistance? As a rule, you will find
both pieces of information on the product packaging of your pick-up system. Please ask
your specialist dealer for recommended values in case of doubt. Support for correctly
configuring your Black Cube/Black Cube SE will be gladly provided.
Once you have the required information, please proceed as follows:
1 | Set the volume on your system to minimum or turn your amplifier off entirely.
2 | Connect the power supply.
3 | Set the gain for your pick-up system (MM/MC) on the Black Cube/Black
Cube SE. The setting must be identical for both channels. Use the DIP
switches on the bottom of the device and the gain jumpers on the inside.
Common amplifier settings for various types of pick-ups are found on the next
page. The gain jumpers are inserted at the factory.
4 | Set the terminating resistance on the Black Cube/Black Cube SE. The setting
must be identical for both channels. Use the custom impedances inside and
the DIP switches on the bottom of the device. Further information is found
on page 41.
5 | Connect the record player to the input on the Black Cube/Black Cube SE.
6 | Connect the output on the Black Cube/Black Cube SE to a line input on the
downstream amplifier. To largely exclude line losses, the signal cables should
be kept short.
