I'm sitting in the back room watching the NFL playoffs and I'm thinking about the G9000 back here. I got a new Ortofon 2m Blue for my back up table hooked up to the big ole solid scrape receiver. I have a separate tube pre amp and thought it might be a hoot to use it through the power amp of the G9000.

Funny thing, I have the service manual on this but not the users manual and I'm not 100% sure of the right connection to hook up my tube pre. I think I know but...hate to just plug things in and then say OPPS! LOL No doubt others here have this big ole beast and can chime in. Thanks!

To connect a tube preamp, move the switch to Cap Coupled and plug your tube preamp output to the amp input.

Ahhhh cap coupled...that was the one tripping me up. Thank you kindly.

...and clean that grubby beast up while yer at it!:D
