Setup Tips & Best Practices
-
Use the built-in preamp (Line mode) when connecting to powered speakers — no extra phono stage needed.
-
If you later upgrade gear, switch to Phono mode to use with an external phono preamp or AV receiver.
-
Always use the tonearm lock when moving the unit to prevent stylus damage.
-
Clean your vinyl and stylus regularly to preserve clarity and minimize noise.
-
Store in a low-vibration environment (sturdy shelf, away from speakers) to benefit from its anti-resonant chassis.
