1. Mounting procedure

1. Always handle your cartridge with the protective stylus guard in place.

2. Align the mounting holes of the headshell or tonearm with the holes in the cartridge.

3. Attach tonearm wires to cartridge pins, being careful not to add too much force.

Also be sure proper channel and polarity is maintained.

4. Insert the screws through the headshell holes and engage them to the inner threads of the

cartridge body. Please take care to not overtight them by force.

NOTE: Always try to use Clearaudio cartridge gold clips or damage may result on cartridge pins.

5. Mount the headshell onto the tonearm (if not intergrated), and adjust the overhang as per

tonearm manufacturer‘s specications and tighten cartridge mounting screws fully with the

accesssory screwdriver.

Take care that the cartridge is sitting at and have a full contact to the headshell.

Please read these instructions carefully before attempting to connect or install your MM cartridge

to avoid any loss of warranty. There is a very high possibility of damaging your moving magnet

cartridge, while connecting or disconnecting to a preamplier or phono-stage which is not properly

grounded.

If the ground of your preamplier and ground of your tonearm and turntable are not connected

together, there could be a dangerous situation for your MM cartridge (which will be not covered

under warranty).

Therefore, be careful and follow instructions below:

1. Connecttonearmturntablegroundwithpreamplierground(beforepluggingin

the electrical power supply)

2. Mount MM cartridge into the tonearm

3. Firstplugthetonearmcableintothephonoinputsanyourpreamplier

5. Plug the main power cord into your electrical power supply

6. Switch„ON“yourpreamplier

7. Your MM-Cartridge is ready to play!

Keep calm and concentrated when adjusting the cartridge.

2. Adjusting the tracking force

Carefully remove the stylus protection guard. This can be done by grasping it from the rear with

thumb and index nger and pulling it rearward gently. The correct tracking force is approximately

2,2g (+/- 0.3g). Please use only these values, as a light tracking force (1 gram or less) would allow

the stylus to jump an the record grooves will cause damage. NEVER exceed 5 grams tracking force

or damage to stylus or cartridge may result.

If optimum tracking force cannot be set because the cartridge is too light for the arm, please use

Clearaudio headshell spacers, available from the importer / dealer.

3. Further adjustments

1. The correct position of the cartridge (overhang setting) depends of the length and shape of the

tonearm and of the mounting point of the tonearm bearing. For precise setting you need a setting

template, which is usually supplied or oered by the manufacturer of the respective turntable or

tonearm. Often quite inaccurate paper- or plastic templates are attached, which do not allow precise

adjustments due to the material. Special overhang templates are available through your local dealer

or from Clearaudio (Art. No. AC005/IEC).

2. Please adjust the tracking force according to the enclosed original measurement protocol and the

given optimal tracking force. To check the adjustment (trackability) you can use a test records which

is available through you dealer (for example Clearaudio Art. No. LPT83063).

3. Setting the anti-skating: Many tonearms have a device to compensate the anti-skating force.

Please proceed according to the user manual of your tonearm manufacturer.

For absolutely correct setting we would also like to recommend a test record.

5. Special instructions

5.1 Maintenance

• Always keep the stylus tip clean. When dirt is allowed to build-up and records are played with

a dirty or clogged stylus, a „buzzing noise“ can be heard. Use a high quality cleaning brush or

Clearaudio cleaning uid to clean the stylus tip. Be extremely careful and always brush only

from the back to front.When using a liquid e.g. from Clearaudio or other organic cleaner,

always take care not to spill any on the cartridge body. Make sure the liquid will always contact

only the stylus tip or boron cantilever.

• Before playing a record, please remove all dust and dirt from the record surface using a quality

cleaning device. For the best results, a record cleaning machine should be used.

Ask your dealer for Clearaudio´s Matrix-cleaning machines. (e.g.

Smart Matrix Professional,

Double Matrix Professional Sonic

, cleaning both sides of LP-record at once!)

• The normally lifetime of a Clearaudio HD Diamond is by careful treatment and correctly

adjustment up to 8000 hours!

• Always avoid storing your cartridge near any objects using electrical transformers and motors,

which may generate magnetic elds. Any demagnetisation contact will result in a drop of

output voltage and possible case of distortion or degradation.

• Please note:

Never disconnect your tonearm cable from your preamplier, while your unit is still „ON“.

Please switch your preamplier „OFF“, before starting to disconnect your tonearm connectors

from the phono inputs of your preamplier.

5.2 Service

• The warranty of the

Jubilee MM

cartridge is 2 years.

• If any service or repair on all Clearaudio products is necessary, please contact your

dealer / distributor or contact Clearaudio directly. We can inform you as well about your

nearest service location. More warranty information on page 14.

Important-pleasenote:

Any damage caused by failure to follow the advice given in the Clearaudio user manual will

1. Montage und Justage

1. Nehmen Sie den Tonabnehmer aus der Verpackung.

2. Bitte lassen Sie während der Montage stets den Nadelschutz auf dem Tonabnehmer, um

Beschädigungen des Nadelträgers zu vermeiden.

3. Verbinden Sie die Anschlussstifte Ihres clearaudio Tonabnehmers mit den Buchsen des

Headshell- oder Tonarm - Kabels. Beachten Sie dabei unbedingt die vorgegebenen

Farbcodierungen. Nur dann ist die absolute Phase bei der Musikwiedergabe korrekt, andern-

falls wäre eine deutlich hörbare Klangverschlechterung die Folge.

4. Montieren Sie mit Hilfe der beiliegenden Schrauben Ihren clearaudio Tonabnehmer in den

Tonarm. Die Aufnahmegewinde im Tonabnehmergehäuse entsprechen der metrischen Norm

für M 2,5 mm Schrauben und weisen den international genormten Abstand von 12,7 mm auf.

Folgende Reihenfolge sollte bei der Montage unbedingt eingehalten werden:

1. MasseverbindungzwischenPlattenspielerbzw.TonarmundVorvorverstärker

 oderPhonovorverstärkerherstellen.

2. MM Tonabnehmer im Tonarm einbauen und anschließen

3. Cinch(RCA)SteckerindieEingangsbuchsendesVorverstärkersstecken

4. Vorverstärker-LautstärkeStellungimmerauf„0“stellen

5. NetzsteckerdesVorverstärkersandasStromnetzanschließen

6. Vorverstärkereinschalten

Die Headshell - Tonarmkabel mit den clearaudio Goldbuchsen ohne große Krafteinwirkung auf die

farbcodierten Kontaktstifte des Systems schieben. Dabei ist zu beachten, dass die Goldbuchsen

nicht verkantet werden. Verwenden Sie eine geeignete Präzisionszange oder Pinzette.

Unser Tipp für die Tonabnehmereinstellung:

Wählen Sie einen hellen Arbeitsplatz, gutes Werkzeug und bewahren Sie Ruhe und Konzentration.

WichtigeInformation:

Bei allen clearaudio Moving Magnet Systemen sind die einzelnen Bauteile unlösbar miteinander

verklebt. Behandeln sie deshalb Ihr MM System vorsichtig. Bei richtiger und sorgfältiger

Handhabung werden Sie viele Jahre Musik hören und genießen können.
