Bluetooth operation
The musicbook has a Bluetooth function which enables
wireless music play back from e.g. smartphones or tab-
lets over the network player.
For a Bluetooth audio transfer from a mobile device to the music-
book, the mobile device must support the A2DP Bluetooth audio
transfer protocol. To connect the mobile device to the network play-
er, select “Bluetooth“ in the app. Now open “Settings“ and “Bluetooth“
on the mobile device and establish a connection by clicking on the
musicbook there. The app may be closed now. Important note: to
return to the network operation, you will need to cut the connection
to the network player on your mobile device.
USB operation
The musicbook can play back music from USB
storage media. For this purpose the device is
equipped with a rear USB host port. The memory can be formatted
using one of the following file systems: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2,
ext3 or ext4. The voltage for the USB storage medium can be sup-
plied via the USB port unless the power consumption of the device
will not exceed 1.5 A. Standard 2.5“ USB harddisks may be connected
there without the need for a separate power supply. The USB host
port may also be used to charge smartphones.
A special feature is the possibility to run an external DVD-ROM drive
(e.g. Apple Superdrive) on this connection: after docking the drive,
a CD playback menu will pop up in the app which allows to use the
musicbook as a CD player.
Operation on MM phono preamp
Optionally, the musicbook is delivered with a phono
preamp for MM pickup cartridges. This input has 46
dBs of gain. The input specifications of 47 kOhms and 150 pF are
standard-conforming. These specifications allow to connect MM
systems without any additional settings. It is important to connect
the turntable ground to the ground terminal of the musicbook. For
this purpose there’s an appropriate socket (2 mm laboratory plug)
directly above the input sockets. The separate ground wire of the
turntable must be connected here. A matching plug is included
with the musicbook Source. In some simple or very old turntables
the ground connection is made via the signal cable, in which case
