- Phono Inputs:
Phono Turntables must be fitted with a magnetic cartridge with nominal output level between -60dBV and -20dBV
(1 to 100 mV). The PHONO inputs (42) of the NUO5 have a high headroom (margin before saturation) and it can
handle higher output cartridges than what is usual. These inputs are supplied with a nominal input sensitivity of
-40dBV(10mV).
- Line Inputs:
Given the important level differences between usual LINE and CD sources, the NUO5 provides specialized inputs
for each source. The sensitivity of the HIGH LINE (43) input is 0dBV (1V), while the LOW LINE (44) sensitivity is
-10dBV(316mV). CD Players, DAT, MP3, and DVD Audio should be connected to the HIGH LINE input. Tape
players, tuners and some production devices (samplers, sequencers) should be connected to the LOW LINE input.
- Microphone Inputs:
The MIC input (40) is ready for a nominal input level of -50dBV (3.16 mV) and is equipped with a combo
JACK/XLR3 connectors. These inputs provide, placing the input selector on ATT position, an input sensitivity
reduction of 20dB which allows a nominal level change from -50 to -30dBV (3.16 to 31.6mV). The connection of
balanced signals is as follows:
Hot or direct signal
Cold or inverted signal
Ground
Low impedance (200 to 600Ω) monophonic microphones must be used. In case of working with an unbalanced
connection Pin 1 and Pin 3 must be short-circuited. The NUO5 features a Phantom power supply for the
connection of condenser microphones. A set of internal jumpers allow you to inhibit the phantom power for the
microphone. The default setting of these jumpers on the NUO5 is "Phantom ON". See configuration diagram.
