Fluance Audio's video: How to Connect the PA10 Phono Preamp to a Fluance Reference Turntable and Ai60 Powered Speakers

One of the most common turntable setups is using a turntable, a phono preamp, and a set of powered bookshelf speakers. In this video, we will show you how to set up a Fluance Reference turntable with a set of Ai60 Powered Bookshelf Speakers, and a new Fluance PA10 phono preamp. The PA10 phono preamp can be used with any turntable using a moving magnet (MM) cartridge and stylus. It helps to boost the turntable signal to line level where speakers and amplifiers can accept it and push it through your favorite speakers. If your speakers or amplifier do not have a PHONO connection, you are likely to need a preamp. We use Fluance products in this video, but the instructions apply to most turntables, phono preamps, and powered bookshelf speakers.

Start by laying out the parts you’ll need to complete this setup. • PA10 Preamp • PA10 Power Adapter • Two RCA cables • Two Grounding wires, these may be part of the RCA cables Connect the red and white plugs on one side of each RCA cable to the Input and Output RCA connections on the PA10. Connect the input cable to the turntable RCA connections. Connect the output cable to the RCA ports on the back of the Ai40(60?). Next, loosen the groundings nut on the turntable and preamp. Slide the grounding under the grounding nut and preamp. Tighten the grounding nut. Repeat this process on the turntable. In some cases, it may be necessary to ground the preamp to the amplifier or speakers, this can be done on any metal surface except for the RCA ports or binding posts. With the audio cables plugged in, you can now connect the power adapter. For best results, connect the power adapter directly to a wall outlet. The preamp will turn on once power is connected. When powered on, you will see an indicator LED above the power knob. Now you’re ready to put on a record and enjoy your favorite music!
