TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION / MC INPUT CONTINUED
Resistive Input loading = 70, 100, 150 & 400Ω.
Capacitive Input loading = 1000, 2000, 3200 & 4200pF.
Maximum input level (0dB high gain setting) = 5.1mV at 1KHz.
Maximum input level (-6dB high gain setting) = 10mV at 1KHz.
Gain (0dB high gain setting) = 69.3dB at 1KHz.
Gain (-6dB low gain setting) = 63.5dB at 1KHz.
Frequency response (100KΩ output load) = 13Hz (-3dB) to 70KHz (-0.2dB).
RIAA accuracy (100KΩ output load) = better than +/-0.2dB 70Hz to 70KHz.
THD+Noise(-6dB low gain setting) = typically 0.035% at 1V Bandwidth 100Hz to 22KHz.
Noise (15Ω terminator and -6dB low gain setting) = typically –71dBV un-weighted 100Hz to 22KHz.
Signal to noise ratio (un-weighted 100Hz-22KHz bandwidth and 0dB high gain setting) = -67dB using
1KHz 5cm/sec track on the HFS69 test record and Apheta cartridge fitted to a RP8 turntable.
Notes on test record levels.
The output will be 1.35V using the 1KHz 5cm/sec track on the HFS69
test record using the Apheta cartridge and the 0dB high gain setting.
