CAPACITANCE

OPERATING

Each

cartridge

has

a

specified

load

capacitance

into

which

it

performs

best.

To

determine

the

capacitive

load

on

the

cartridge,

the

capacitance

of

the

receiver's

phono

input

cir-

cuitry

and

the

capacitance

of

the

turntable's

tonearm

and

output

cord

must

be

added.

Often,

this

amount

is

less

than

that

required

by

the

cartridge.

The

capacitance

trim

fea-

ture

allows

you

to

add

100pF

or

200pF

to

the

normal

amount,

so

that

nearly

all

cartridges

can

be

accommodated.
