The Ortofon 2M Red cartridge system comes pre-installed on the headshell. Ensure it is securely attached to the high-quality carbon tonearm. Adjust the counterweight for proper tracking force. Refer to the Ortofon 2M Red cartridge manual for specific tracking force recommendations. The tonearm features height adjustment (Vertical Tracking Angle - VTA) and anti-skating adjustment for maximum precision. Adjust these settings for optimal sound reproduction.

5. Anschluss an das Audiosystem

Connect the RCA cables from the turntable's audio output to your amplifier or receiver. The Turn 7 features a high-quality preamplifier, allowing switching between line and phono signals. If your amplifier has a dedicated phono input, set the turntable's pre-amp switch to OFF. If connecting to a line-level input (AUX, CD), set the pre-amp switch to ON. Connect the ground wire (if applicable) to your amplifier's ground terminal to minimize hum. For digitizing vinyl records, connect the USB output to your computer.
