Line inputs 

Three  RCA  /  Single  Ended  line  inputs  are  available  for  connection, 
labeled ‘Tuner’ ‘Aux’ and ‘CD’; any standard ‘line level’ source can be 
connected to these inputs. 

 

All  sockets  are  colour  coded; 

RED

  is  for  RIGHT  channel  connection, 

WHITE is for LEFT channel connection. 

 

Phono input 

The M6 Phono is equipped with a high quality, valve, Moving Magnet 
(MM)  phonostage.  Connect  the  cables  from  your  tonearm  to  the 
‘Phono’ socket inputs. If your Turn Table is equipped with a separate 
earth  wire,  connect  this  to  the  dedicated  grounding  /  earth  post, 
located next to the ‘Phono’ input sockets. 

 

If you wish to use a low output Moving Coil (MC) cartridge, Audio Note 
(UK) manufactures a series of Step Up Transformers for this purpose. 
For  further  information,  please  contact  your  Audio  Note  (UK)  Dealer, 
or alternatively please contact us direct. 

 

Mains 

 

The  M6  Phono  utilizes  an  IEC  320  mains  inlet  socket.  Use  the 

supplied  mains  cable  to  connect  the  unit  to  the  local  mains  supply. 
The mains fuse and a spare is located in the inlet socket fuse drawer. 

 

Special Note – Make sure that all connections are tight and clean. For 

best  results  use  good  quality  audio  interconnects.  Although  it  is 
perfectly acceptable to use cables manufactured by other companies, 
for best results and performance, we recommend our own 

Audio Note 

(UK)  range  of  interconnects  and  loudspeaker  cables.  For  further 
information,  please  consult  your  nearest  Audio  Note  (UK)  dealer,  or 
alternatively please feel free to contact us directly. 

 
Ground Post 

A ground post is provided for connection to those source components 
that also use a separate ground terminal. 

 

Outputs 

Outputs 

The  M6  Phono  provides  two  unbalanced  outputs, 

consisting  of  two  pairs  of  colour  coded  RCA  /  Single  Ended  sockets. 

RED

  is  for  RIGHT  channel  connection,  WHITE  is  for  LEFT  channel 

connection.  

 

 

There  is  also  a  balanced  output,  consisting  of  a  pair  of  ‘male’  XLR 
sockets (see ‘Balanced’ section, below). 

 

RCA   

The  two  pairs  of  RCA  /  Single  Ended  outputs  are  for  connection  to  a 
power amplifier and are identical, making them suitable for bi-amping.
