APPLICATION For matching low impedance (3-15 ohm) moving coil Phono cartridge to balanced or single sided solid state or valve pre-amplifier. Ensures appropriate loading of the cartridge and correct matching to pre-amplifier. Ideal for use with low output cartridges. Suitable for ORTOFON Super, Supreme and 000 series cartridges.  Two transformers are required for a stereo system.
FEATURES  Mumetal (76%Nickel) laminated core for minimal harmonic distortion and exceptional bandwidth. 4 separate electrostatic screens for rejection of hum and noise in the cable connecting between the cartridge and transformer. Multiple interleaved windings ensuring exceptionally good bandwidth. The high bandwidth and very low phase shift ensures excellent transient response. Mumetal can for magnetic shielding. Available with colour coded leads or international octal plug for a small extra charge.
RATIO 1:20
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION at 20 Hz (6 ohm source) typical  0.05%
FREQUENCY RESPONSE 8 Ohm source 47K ohm +/- 0.5 dB 10 Hz to 100 kHz
NOTE The transformer should be connected as shown below. The Black (ground) lead is normally connected to the signal ground of the amplifier. You may need to experiment with different connection points to minimize hum. You may also need to try connecting the Brown lead to signal ground.
