fire or electric shock.
If a foreign object has fallen inside the
equipment, turn the amplifier’s power switch off,
and contact the dealer. To keep using the
equipment can result in a risk of fire and electric
shock.
Do not install the equipment in the humid or
dusty environment. This can result in a risk of

Care of Equipment
Note
In order to use the equipment for a long time, follow the instructions
shown in below:
Do not install this equipment near a heat source such as direct sun light, a stove and so on.
Do not use this equipment at a poorly-ventilated, humid or dusty place.
Do not install this equipment at an unstable place such as slope or vibrating place.
Do not install this equipment near a window where the equipment can be exposed to rain.
Do not install this equipment in a high humidity environment.
Avoid using this equipment on an equipment generating heat such as an amplifier.
Keep this equipment away from a power supply transformer or a motor of other equipments.
AC 230V power supply must be supplied.
The equipment operates normally in the both areas of 50Hz and 60Hz power supply frequen-
cies.
Do not touch the AC power cable with wet hands.
Do not pull the cable strongly or bend the cable. The cable can be damaged and can result in
a risk of fire and electric shock.
Use the AC power cable of the accessories.
If the equipment is covered with dust or dirt, clean it with a soft cloth.
If the equipment is covered with heavy dust, put a very thin mild detergent on a soft cloth.
Wring the cloth and wipe off the dust and dirt. Then, clean with a dry soft cloth.
Never use chemical agents such as thinner, naphtha and alcohol when cleaning it.
If any of them is attached to the equipment, the silk printing can be flaked or the surface can
lose metal luster.
In case of equipment failure, consult the dealer.
Avoid covering the equipment with a cloth or installing it in enclosed space because
radiation and air convection from the chassis surface can be hindered.
This unit has no intake or exhaust holes for heat dissipation to prevent the entry of exter-
nal sound pressure and dust. The chassis is cooled by convection and the heat dissipat-
ed from the unit is cooled by radiation and air convection from the chassis, which has high
thermal conductivity.

Names and Functions
(1) POWER switch
The power supply can be turned on or off by pressing the POWER switch.
(2) POWER indicator
The POWER indicator lights up blue when the power supply is supplied.
(3) DC OUT
The DC power supply is supplied from two connectors to the L and R Phono Equalizer
units through two DC power junction cables of EA-1200 accessories. L and R are not
assigned to two connectors.
* It is not a problem to exchange (3) and (4) for the operations, but it may take about
30 seconds for the indicator light to turn off after turning the POWER switch to OFF.
(4) AC IN
Connect the AC power cable of the accessories to the AC INLET of the Power Supply
Unit and plug it to an outlet.
Connecting the two AC plugs of the power supplies to adjacent outlets can make the
sound kept at high quality.
Power Supply Unit
Long slot
Side with
the circle
Circle
A circle is assigned on one side of the plug of the
AC power cable so that better quality sound is
reproduced by matching the power supply polarity
with another equipment.
This polarity may be different due to the house
wiring for the outlet or because of the power supply
condition; however, generally the side with the
circle should be inserted to the long slot of the
outlet.
