important for your turntable performance.

3. Before turning it on, plug Spinbase into a

power outlet using its power adapter.

Connect a Turntable or Record Player

1. Place your turntable on top of Spinbase.

2. Using a turntable with a Magnetic cartridge

(most common): Connect your turntable to

“Magnetic Phono”. Ensure switch is set to

“Line-In”.

3. Using a turntable with a Ceramic cartridge,

or a record player with a line output:

Connect it to the Line-In on Spinbase. Set

switch to “Ceramic”.

4. Use the ground connector if your turntable

supports it.

5. Leave shorting plugs in the “Magnetic

Phono” input when it’s not being used.

Thank you for purchasing Spinbase.

If you’re new to vinyl, or returning to it after a few years, there are some important things to know:

The turntable Phono cartridge is the device on the end of the tonearm that converts record grooves to an

electrical signal. The most commonly equipped cartridges are Magnetic and Ceramic. Spinbase is compatible

with both, but the connections are different. (Note: Some high-end cartridges, called Moving-Coil, are not

compatible with Spinbase.)

MAGNETIC CARTRIDGES - provide higher delity than their Ceramic siblings. They also track your records with

less weight and are better at preventing record wear. They provide very little electrical output and require a

circuit known as an RIAA preamplier to boost and equalize the signal. Spinbase has this preamplier built-in.

If your turntable has a Magnetic cartridge, connect it to the “Magnetic Phono” input on Spinbase. Ensure the

back switch is set to Line-In.

Some turntables also have their own preampliers built-in and do not require the use of the preamplier

in Spinbase. If your turntable has a switch on it marked “Line” and “Phono”, your turntable has a built-in

preamplier. You have two choices:

1. Switch your turntable to “Line” and plug it into the Line-In input on Spinbase; or,

2. Switch your turntable to “Phono” and plug it into the “Magnetic Phono” input, utilizing the preamplier in

Spinbase.

In most cases, plugging your turntable into the Spinbase Phono input and ensuring back switch is set to Line-

In will give the best sound. Try them both and use what sounds best to you.

CERAMIC CARTRIDGES - are generally found in lower priced turntables and record players. They do not

perform as well as a good magnetic cartridge, but can still give satisfying performance with Spinbase thanks

to its exclusive Ceramic Equalization feature. Ceramic cartridges have high output voltage, and turntables or

record players equipped with one should be plugged into the Line-In input on Spinbase. The sound quality will

be improved when setting the back switch to “ON”. If you are NOT using a Ceramic cartridge, leave the back

switch to the Line-In position.

SHORTING PLUGS - The shorting plugs supplied with Spinbase should remain plugged into the “Magnetic

Phono” input whenever it is unused, such as when you are using the Spinbase Line-Input or a Bluetooth device.

Failure to do this will result in excess electronic background noise.

STAYING GROUNDED - Because Magnetic Phono cartridges have such a low output, the Phono input is much

more sensitive to any noise or ground hum than other inputs. Because of this, many turntables are equipped

with a grounding wire or have a screw to attach one. If your turntable requires grounding, attach the grounding

wire from the ground thumbscrew on Spinbase to the ground screw on your turntable. Some turntables are not

equipped with ground wires, and instead have their ground supplied through the RCA plugs.

CONTACT SUPPORT - There are so many different turntables, record players and other sources available to use

with Spinbase that it’s impossible to cover all the possibilities here. If you have any operation, connection, or

performance questions or concerns don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’re ready to help!
