SORO PHONO INTEGRATED Congratulations on your purchase of the Audio Note (UK) SORO Phono Integrated Amplifier. It is a Pure Class A, Push-Pull valve design, producing an outstanding level of performance and value.
CONNECTION Phono input The SORO Phono is equipped with a high quality, valve, Moving Magnet (MM) phonostage. Connect the cables from your tonearm to the ʻPhonoʼ socket inputs. If your Turn Table is equipped with a separate earth wire, connect this to the dedicated grounding / earth post, located next to the ʻPhonoʼ input sockets. If you wish to use a low output Moving Coil (MC) cartridge, Audio Note manufactures a series of Step Up Transformers for this purpose.
OPERATION Once all the connections are completed and checked, ensure that the volume control is at the minimum setting (rotated all the way left). Turn on the amplifier by using the rocker switch located on the rear panel, above the IEC mains inlet socket. The red front panel light should now be lit. The amplifier requires approximately 45 seconds to initialize before it is ready for operation. Input Selector Turn the selector to the source you wish to listen to.
