Ooh, get you!Good find. Oh dear I see it requires soldering. Given I am the DIY equivalent of Mr Bean I will wait for an engineer to do it when I get it serviced post-lockdown. I did replace the fuse in it the other day though xD

Talking of which, another fuse went on the amp today. I’ve replaced it again but something is clearly amiss. :| On both occasions I had just turned the amp on and put the stylus on a record. Any ideas? (Apart from faking it to an engineer which currently I can’t do...)Ooh, get you!
The amplifier has a separate head amp for the MC input. Here is a quote which might explain:I was lucky to find an 850 a couple of months ago. Really love this amp! About the self adjusting riaa - can anyone explain how this feature is supposed to work? Sometimes (not every time) when I change between my stereo and mono cartridge (both low output mc’s) the volume goes up and down for a little while before it seems to find the right level.
Thanks, Oldius. I’ve come across this myself. I guess it must be from a Denon brochure. I was just wondering how automatic equalization works?The amplifier has a separate head amp for the MC input. Here is a quote which might explain:
The gain of the MC head amplifier of the PMA 850 is inversely proportional to the impedance of the connected cartridge depending on the construction principle of the circuit used.
Cartridge impedance and output voltage are almost directly proportional, and the output of the MC head amp is automatically equalized, eliminating the need for extensive volume adjustment for each cartridge.
I think I have a user manual when I got mine. Yep, just found it.Thanks, Oldius. I’ve come across this myself. I guess it must be from a Denon brochure. I was just wondering how automatic equalization works?
Did you or anybody else ever happen to find the user manual online? I can only find the service manual?
Best, Thomas
I think I have a user manual when I got mine. Yep, just found it.
I will scan it on Monday, PM me your email and I will send. BobThanks, that’s great! Would it be too much to ask you to post pictures of the rest of the manual?
Best, Thomas
For some reason the system won´t let me send you a pm. Could you try to pm me?I will scan it on Monday, PM me your email and I will send. Bob

Send it to me. I have the manual. I will send you a digital copy.Hope you don't mind me asking but I'd love a copy of the manual too.
Can I pm my email address
Sent. I hope it's useful.Send it to me. I have the manual. I will send you a digital copy.
