SETTING THE TYPE AND ELECTRICAL
CAPACITY OF THE PICKUP SYSTEM
Depending on the construction principle of the record player pickup system
the PHO-112 must be adjusted to the correct operating mode using the
switch "MC/MM I/MM II" (4). The two pickup types that are used in most
cases are named "MM" (moving magnet) and "MC" (moving coil). All infor-
mation you need should be written in the pickup system data sheet or the
record player user manual. In case of doubt ask your local HiFi specialist.
If your record player is equipped with an MC system that is no "high out-
put MC system", the mode switch "MC/MM I/MM II" (4) must be set to
"MC". Any additional adaption to the pickup system is not possible.
High output MC systems are MC systems with a nominal output
voltage of more than 1.5 mV.
If your record player is equipped with an MM system or a "high output
MC system", the mode switch "MC/MM I/MM II" (4) must be set to one
of the options "MM". They both differ in the electrical capacity of the
input "IN". This capacity value must harmonize with the record player
pickup system. If the input capacity is set too low, you will experience a
continuous attenuation with rising frequency. If the input capacity is set
too high, there will be a local gain maximum in the audible frequency
range and a continuous attenuation with rising frequency, starting from
the local maximum.
