The Black Cube Statement supplies practically unlimited load adaption for practically every
cartridge on the market. The high maximum gain of 66dB for MC cartridges makes sure that
even very low output cartridges can be used with satisfactory results. Sensitivity quoted
above is calculated for an output level of 500mV.
It is not possible to overload the Black Cube Statement with any known phono cartridge if
the unit is set up correctly.
Below some DIP-switch /gain jumper combinations for several kinds of cartridge are shown.
Please note that both channel have to be congured identically to maintain correct stereo
balance.
