Configuració
Proper installation of your Clearaudio Concept MM phono cartridge is crucial for optimal performance. Ensure your turntable's tonearm is compatible with a moving magnet cartridge. Carefully mount the cartridge to the headshell using the provided screws, ensuring a secure fit without overtightening. Connect the color-coded wires from the tonearm to the corresponding pins on the cartridge (red for right channel hot, green for right channel ground, white for left channel hot, blue for left channel ground). Adjust the tracking force, anti-skate, and vertical tracking angle (VTA) according to your turntable's specifications and the cartridge's recommended settings for precise stylus alignment in the record groove. Accurate alignment is key to minimizing wear on both the stylus and your vinyl records, while maximizing sound quality.
Instruccions de funcionament
To operate your Clearaudio Concept MM cartridge, ensure it is correctly installed on your turntable. Place a clean vinyl record on the platter. Gently lower the tonearm, allowing the stylus to settle into the record's lead-in groove. The cartridge will then begin to track the grooves, converting the physical vibrations into an electrical signal that is sent to your phono preamplifier i després al teu amplifier and speakers. For the best listening experience, ensure your records are clean and free of dust. The Clearaudio Concept MM is designed to provide a warm and engaging sound, with a balanced frequency response that is not overly bright or harsh, making it ideal for prolonged listening sessions. Its wide soundstage enhances the spatial presentation of your music.

Keep your records clean to prevent abrasive particles from damaging the stylus. When not in use, ensure the stylus guard is in place to protect the stylus from accidental damage. Avoid touching the stylus with your fingers.
