The input resistance and the amplification of the PHONO MC module can be
attuned to your pickup with the MC SETUP. For detailed instruction please refer to
the chapter THE SETUP MENUS / MC SETUP.
The PHONO SETUP offers the chance to switch on a subsonic filter to eliminate low
frequency noise.
The pinning of the balanced PHONO MC input is: PIN1=GND,PIN2=NEG,
PIN3=POS.
On request the PHONO MC modules and the adapter plugs are available at your
local dealer.
PHONO MM module
With a PHONO MM module the module input is a balanced PHONO MM input to
connect a record player with moving magnet pickup or high output moving coil
pickup.
If your record player has an unbalanced output, the balanced PHONO MM input can
be converted to unbalanced mode by using XLR-RCA adapter plugs.
The input capacitance and the amplification of the PHONO MM module can be
attuned to your pickup with the MM SETUP. For detailed instruction please refer to
the chapter THE SETUP MENUS / MM SETUP.
The PHONO SETUP offers the chance to switch on a subsonic filter to eliminate low
frequency noise.
The pinning of the balanced PHONO MM input is: PIN1=GND,PIN2=NEG,
PIN3=POS.
On request the PHONO MM modules and the adapter plugs are available at your
local dealer.
D/A converter module
With the D/A converter module inserted two inputs for digital audio signals will be
available: an unbalanced chinch input (RCA), which can receive pulse coded
signals (PCM) in the usual S/P-DIF format with a maximum sampling rate of 192kHz,
and a USB input, which supports USB class 1audio and USB class 2audio,
depending on the operating system of your computer. Since the USB input is
aso-called slave connection, no USB sticks or USB hard disks may be connected.
The RCA and USB inputs are selected by either pressing the
MODULE FUNCTION
(12)
key on the front panel of the device or by pressing and holding the AUDIO button
on the remote control for about
2
seconds. The active input will be indicated on the
display.
The sampling rate is toggled between 96kHz and 192kHz by pushing up the
MODULE FUNCTION (12) key on the front panel of the device or by shortly
pressing the AUDIO button on the remote control. With a sampling rate of 192kHz
the AUDIO LED (3) will be lit.
The level of both the RCA and USB inputs can be preset individually,
see THE SETUP MENUS / GLOBAL SETUP.
Adapter Plugs
If your stereo components should only offer unbalanced outputs, you are
able to use our balanced inputs with the adapter plugs as unbalanced inputs.
In these adapter plugs the Pins 2 (negative input) and Pin 1 (ground pin) are
connected (see graphic below). 4 XLRRCA adapters plugs are delivered with the
unit, allowing you to use 2 inputs as unbalanced inputs. If you need further plugs
you may get them at your authorized dealer.
NOTICE: Please use BURMESTER XLR-RCA adapters only.

Module input
The module input (23) may be equipped alternatively with 4different modules:
NOTICE: Subsequent installation of other modules must only be done by
your authorized dealer or by Burmester Audiosysteme GmbH.
LINE module
The LINE module supplies an unbalanced high-level input.
PHONO MC module
With a PHONO MC module the module input is a balanced PHONO MC input to
connect a record player with moving coil pickup (no high output MC).
If your pickup has an unbalanced output, the balanced PHONO MC input can be
converted to unbalanced mode by using XLR-RCA adapter plugs.
