Regardless of which input (differential or single-ended) you choose, differential amplification and equalization are maintained throughout. And even if you are using t h single-ended inputs, we advise that you use the differential outputs of your Phono Sta for better sonic performance. Features - Two phono input configurations: one standard, single-ended (RCA- type connector) a one fully balanced (XLR-type connector) - Balanced (differential) outputs, with both RCA and XLR-type connectors provided - User-adjustable, variable cartridge loading via external "calibrated indicator dial" or internal discrete resistor plug-in sockets - User-adjustable output impedance - Ten discrete, low impedance power supply regulators provide extremely high noise rejection and isolation - Discrete, FET, high-current amplifier stages - All critical circuitry is encapsulated in a thermally-conductive epoxy to ensure excell e thermal stability, mechanical integrity and to facilitate ease of service - Mil-spec circuit board material, with oxygen-free copper traces and high-temperatur e mask provides superior electrical characteristics. Unpacking Instructions In the shipping box you will find: - DC power supply cable - Two XLR-type male connectors - 10-100 ohm loading resistor pack - warranty card (This form must be completed and returned to JEFF ROWLAND DESIGN GROUP [or its authorized distributor if outside the U.S.A.] within 14 da y of purchase. Not only will your Phono Stage be registered, but you will, in the future, be informed of new products and services.) We strongly suggest that you save all packing materials The Consummate Phono Stage can be lifted out of its box while still wrapped in the plastic bag and foam pieces, which can then be removed.

Installation The Consummate Phono Stage is designed to be used only with the Power Supply of Consummate Preamplifier. The Consummate Power Supply provides the correct DC voltages and voltage regulation necessary for proper operation. The use of other pow e supplies or sources may cause serious damage to your Phono Stage and will also voi its warranty. The supplied DC power supply cable attaches to the rear of your Consummate Powe r Supply. Please make sure that the AC cord to the Power Supply is disconnected from wall socket before you attach this Phono Stage DC power supply cable. Double chec k make sure that the Power Supply AC switch on its back panel is in the "off" position before re-connecting the AC cord to the Power Supply. Otherwise, damage to your Phono Stage can occur. Locate the Phono Stage as close as possible to its final installation point. Allow acces s the back panel for making connections. You can stack the components of the Consummate system; the suggested arrangement is to have the Consummate Power Supply on the bottom, the Preamplifier in the middle and the Phono Stage on top. Yo u can also position the Phono Stage close to your turntable. Due to extensive local pow e supply regulation within the Phono Stage, as well as its high-current, impedance- matched, differential mode output capability, it can be located up to 20 meters away f r the Preamplifier and Power Supply with no performance degradation. If you have a situation like this and need a custom length DC power supply cable, please contact y o Jeff Rowland Design Group dealer. Operating Instructions Single-Ended Input Connections: The Consummate Phono Stage can be operated in a conventional, single- ended inp u mode. Located on the rear panel are 3 input jacks per channel in the Phono Inputgr o Note also that a small toggle switch marked Input Selectis located between the RC A and XLR input jacks. For single- ended operation, simply plug your turntable interconnects into the Normal RCA jacks and set the Input Select switches to Norm a your turntable is equipped with a separate ground wire, connect it under the Ground thumbscrew. Balanced Input Connections: The Consummate Phono Stage can also be operated in a balanced (differential mod e input configuration. Two different input connector options are provided: XLR inputs in which each channel connector carries the normal and inverting (positive and negative ) input signals; or separate RCA connectors by which the normal and inverting signals a
