Introduction
The OneRemote RIAA DIN-II amplifier is designed for use with Bang & Olufsen turntables connected to
amplifiers without a built in RIAA amplifier, but it may be used with any turntable connected the same way.
When connected to a DataLink controlled Bang & Olufsen turntable any DataLink signal from a Bang &
Olufsen connected audiomaster is passed directly through allowing full remote control of the operation of
the turntable as specified by Bang & Olufsen for this set up.
The OneRemote RIAA DIN-II amplifier corrects the frequency response as described below and amplifies the
PU signal to line level.
The OneRemote RIAA DIN-II amplifier is supplied in a metal cabinet to maintain shielding of the signal, and it
is delivered with its own DC power supply.
RIAA
RIAA equalizaon is a specicaon for the recording and
playback of phonograph records, established by the
Recording Industry Associaon of America (RIAA). The
purposes of the equalizaon are to permit greater
recording mes, to improve sound quality, and to reduce
the groove damage that would otherwise arise during
playback.
RIAA equalizaon is a form of pre-emphasis on recording and de-emphasis on playback. A recording is made
with the low frequencies reduced and the high frequencies boosted, and on playback the opposite occurs.
The net result is a at frequency response, but with aenuaon of high frequency noise such as hiss and
clicks that arises from the recording medium.
Reducing the low frequencies also limits the excursions the cuer needs to make when cung a groove.
Groove width is thus reduced, allowing more grooves to t into a given surface area, perming longer
recording mes. This also reduces physical stresses on the stylus which might otherwise cause distoron or
groove damage during playback.
The OneRemote RIAA DIN-II amplier uses the exact same RIAA specicaons as used by Bang & Olufsen.
