{"product_id":"chord-phonoaray-turntable-earthing-system","title":"Chord PhonoARAY turntable earthing system","description":"\u003ch2\u003ePhonoARAY turntable earthing system\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PhonoARAY was conceived to improve the playback of turntables, although it can be used successfully in a variety of earthing applications within an audio system. Turntables can be earthed to the phono stage or phono amp input, whilst providing maximum protection for the highly sensitive signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the PhonoARAY is a hand-wound, ultra-high-current series filter, joining both terminals, as well as a complex ARAY system, connected in parallel, that gives added sound security and also provides an effective double “virtual earth system” for both the turntable and phono stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnections on the PhonoARAY are via two high-quality 4mm speaker-style terminals, accepting 4mm ‘banana’ and spade connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PhonoARAY connects the earth terminal of the turntable (or tonearm) to the earth terminal of the phono stage (or amplifier phono input) and is supplied with a dedicated 50cm screened earth cable (4mm to spade connector) to be used between the PhonoARAY and the phono input earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PhonoARAY is housed in a thick-walled machined aluminium billet to provide good electrical and acoustic isolation. The PhonoARAY chamber has been resin-filled to reduce microphony, which is when mechanical vibrations are transformed into an undesired electrical signal\/noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe casing rests on two extremely lightweight, decoupled isolation feet to further reduce microphony. The feet fixing bolts should be loosened before installation to allow full decoupling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional, higher specification Clearway, Shawline and Signature earth cables are available to order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chord","offers":[{"title":"Earth Lead with 4mm spade","offer_id":56035730915702,"sku":"PhonoARAY","price":1030.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Earth Lead with 6.6mm spade","offer_id":56035730948470,"sku":"PhonoARAY","price":1030.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8750\/2569\/files\/chordo-phono-aray-with-earth1080px.jpg?v=1754194394","url":"https:\/\/nintronics.co.uk\/products\/chord-phonoaray-turntable-earthing-system","provider":"Nintronics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
