2. How to use

Note: The Clearaudio Smart Synchro was designed for a

maximum peak power of 3 watts.
DO NOT use units requiring more than 3 watts.
The Clearaudio
Smart Synchro unit was designed to be placed under Clearaudio turntables models
like Emotion, Emotion SE, Performance and Performance SE with synchronous motor.
Phonostages are devices designed to provide a very high level of amplification. This is necessary
because the electrical signal generated by a phono cartridge is extremely low (usually less than one-
thousandth of a volt). The job of the phonostage is therefore to accurately equalise the phono signal
and boost it to line level (measured in volts).
However, phonostages are by nature extremely sensitive, which leads to the potential problem that
high-frequency interference may also be amplified to a point at which it becomes noticeable.
Unfortunately it is not possible to completely protect the sensitive phonostage circuitry from this
interference without degrading its high fidelity performance. Therefore care must be taken to position
the phonostage away from sources of high frequency interference such as mobile phones, modems
and powerline communication systems (PLC) in which data is sent over the mains power network.
On the front panel of the Clearaudio Smart Synchro you will find on the right side the button
“ON / OFF”.
Please make sure, that the button is in the “OFF” position before installing the power supply unit !
1. First connect the electrical connection with the
Smart Synchro (on the backside) and your turntable.
2. Now take the power supply unit and insert the country-specific adapter together with the power
supply. After that you can connect the Smart Synchro (on the backside: DC IN) with the mains
supply.
2.If the blue LED light up (in the middle of the front panel) the Smart Synchro is now ready for
operating.
3.The left button on the front panel changes the speed between 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM.
From the factory the frequency is pre-setted:
For Channel 1 (33 1/3 RPM ) = 60 Hz
For Channel 2 (45 RPM) = 81 Hz
