Placement and connections
By employing the appropriate (country-specific) Thorens 
mains adapter this record player can be connected to 
nearly any mains voltage supply. The low-tension plug of 
the cord coming from the mains adaptor is to be inserted 
into the respective socket at the rear side (right) of the 
record player (Fig. 2.1).
Use the supplied RCA leads to connect the record player 
to the phono input jack (RCA) of your amplifier or receiver 
(Fig. 2.2). HINT: Make sure that the polarity is correct, i.e. 
right/left channel output at the record player is to corre-
spond with the right/left channel input.
For amplifiers/receivers featuring a 5-pin DIN-socket at the 
phono input section you will need a special adaptor (RCA 
to DIN) which may be acquired from your Thorens dealer.
The separate thinner lead is used to make a connection 
to ground. Connect this lead between the ground post 
of the record player (Fig. 2.2) and the respective ground 
post (GND) of your amplifier/receiver. If your amplifier does 
not feature a separate ground post you may alternatively 
attach the lead to the outer part of an unused RCA input 
jack at the amplifier.
