Grado Color Coded Pins

Okey Dokey -- the two pins near the H are BOTH hot (+) pins. The two pins near the G are BOTH ground (--) pins.

The two pins near the L are BOTH left channel and the two pins near the R are BOTH right channel.

Example: The pin between the H and the R is Right Channel Positive. Etc, etc, etc.

Comprende?

BTW, that's a top of the line cartridge. Didn't it come w/ an instruction sheet?

No Cart only used from the gon

H denotes HOT (+) R right=Red L left=White

G Denotes Grnd(-) R right=Green L left=Blue

I had this same quandry with an older Grado, fortunately I had a color coded Audioquest M-1 for reference.

Hope this helps. Enjoy!

Thanks for your help

hey, I just upgraded from a dual 701 to a rega p3. I have a grado gold cartridge. I tried the pin configuration which was said above. I can only hear the left channel though. I connected the RCA cables to my phono input. Not sure why its not working. I know the preamp/ phono works. Could it be the cable or the cartridge? ( I just moved so could the cartridge have been damaged during shipping?). It looks ok from looking at it, not sure the insides are working. Any suggestions?
