Line In And Optical; Phono; Input Level Adjustment - RuarkAudio R5 Guide De L'utilisateur

Line in and optical

You can listen to audio from an external analogue audio source
by connecting it to Line in or a digital source by connecting it
to Optical.

Phono

Your R5 includes a high-fidelity phono stage pre-amplifier for
use with a moving magnet (MM) turntable cartridge.
It is not designed for a moving coil type cartridge.
To connect a turntable to your R5, we recommend high quality
phono leads.

Input level adjustment

For best audio performance, we recommend you balance the
volume level of an external device (eg portable music player or
turntable) so its volume is about the same as inbuilt sources
like CD or USB.
If the volume is lower, increase the input level.
If the volume is higher or distorts, decrease the input level.
You can adjust the input level by selecting MENU > Input level
and choose your desired level.
If your external audio source has a volume control you may
also need to adjust that.
