Ayre Acoustics P-5XE - Manual (Page 8)

Controls and
Operation
The Ayre P-5xe offers the ultimate in flexibility and
performance for all types of phono cartridges.
Low-noise FET circuitry provides ultra-quiet
operation even with the lowest output cartridges.
Both gain and loading are easily adjustable to
accommodate both moving coil and moving magnet
designs.
Setting the Gain
Ayre’s exclusive zero-feedback design allows for a
wide range of signal gain, without the need for
step-up transformers or extra gain stages. Changing
the gain is easily accomplished with jumper blocks
inside the unit.
Disconnect the AC power before
removing the cover of the unit.
To access the gain adjustments, remove the 10
screws on the top cover using a 5/64" (2 mm) hex
wrench.
