Connecting your NORDOST Norse 2 High Performance Cables properly ensures you get the best performance from your audio system. Here's a straightforward guide:
For signal cables:
- Safety First: Always switch off all components before making any connections. Unplug your existing cables.
- Identify Polarity: NORDOST cables use color-coding. Look for red or purple connectors indicating positive (+), and black for negative (-).
- Make the Connections: Connect the positive connector to the red or positive (+) input on your component. Connect the negative connector to the black or negative (-) input.
- Directional Arrows: Pay attention to the directional arrows printed on the cables. They should point towards the receiving component.
For tonearm leads:
Consult the separate "Tonearm Cable + Instruction Manual" for detailed instructions specific to your tonearm setup. Pay close attention to connector orientation when plugging them into the tonearm base.
For digital leads:
Use the appropriate NORDOST digital cables (75 Ohm or 110 Ohm) as required by your equipment. Follow the directional coding on the S/PDIF 75 Ohm lead. For optimal performance, consider using the BNC connector.
For power cables:
- Match the Connector: Ensure the power cable's connector matches the male socket on your equipment.
- Plug Type: Verify that the plug type is correct for your region (e.g., US, Schuko, AUS, UK).
- Power Off: Always switch off the equipment before connecting the NORDOST Norse 2 Power Cord. By following these steps, you'll ensure your NORDOST Norse 2 High Performance Cables are correctly connected and ready to deliver superior audio performance.
