ers and other equipment connected to this unit (page 11).
o The indicator to the left of the button lights during
demagnetization.
o The brightness of the indicator can be changed by pressing
and holding this button for three seconds. The brightness can
be set to one of two levels: bright or dim.
D

When using an MC cartridge, select an impedance load between
10 Ω and 10 kΩ as you like. You can enjoy how the sound
changes according to the impedance setting.
When using an MM cartridge, select 47 kΩ.
o The indicator for the selected impedance lights.
o When an MC cartridge setting between 10 Ω and 10 kΩ is
selected, the amplifier gain is increased 26 dB compared to
when the 47kΩ (MM) setting is selected.
o When an MC cartridge setting is selected, the sound quality
will change according to the impedance setting.
o The 47kΩ (MM) setting is also recommended for some MC
cartridges with high output.
o When using a step-up transformer with an MC cartridge,
