Phono Inputs
Phono Turntables must be fitted with a magnetic cartridge with nominal output level between -55dBV and -25dBV
(1,77 to 56mV). The PHONO inputs (36) of the NUO3.0 have a high headroom (margin before saturation) and it
can handle higher output cartridges than what is usual. These inputs are supplied with a nominal input sensitivity of
-40dBV(10mV).
Line Inputs
The sensitivity of the inputs marked as LINE (37) is 0dBV (1V). You can connect sound sources such as CD, DAT
or MP3 players, as well as keyboards and other instruments.
Microphone input
The MICRO input (38) is adjusted for a nominal input level of -50dBV. The connector type is XLR3. This
microphone input allows connections in balanced mode. The connection has to be done as follows:
Hot or direct signal
Cold or inverted signal >
Ground
The microphones must have low impedance (from 200 to 600Ω) and must be monophonic. For unbalanced
connections, a short circuit must be done between pin 3 and ground. The NUO3.0 wears an 18V Phantom power
for condenser microphones. An internal jumper allows disabling the phantom power. The NUO3.0 MICRO input is
delivered ex works with enabled phantom power (see the configuration diagram).
