MICROPHONO PP400
Welcome to BEHRINGER
Thank you for showing your condence in us by purchasing the BEHRINGER MICROPHONO
PP400, a compact phono preamplier.
Turntables have low-level signals. However, most audio units can only process line-level
signals. Between a turntable and another audio unit (a mixer, an amplier, or a recording
unit), the PP400 acts as an intermediary, as follows:
1. The PP400 equalizes a turntable signal according to RIAA specications.
2. The PP400 amplies the RIAA equalized signal.
3. The PP400 outputs a line-level signal.
Please read the safety instructions that appear at the end of this document.

Fig. 1: PP400 connectors and control elements
(1) 12 V𝌂 connector:
To connect the power supply unit to the PP400, use the 12 V connector. Connecting the
power supply unit to the mains automatically switches the PP400 on. To disconnect
the unit from the mains, pull out the main cord plug.
(2) ON LED:
As soon as the unit is connected to the mains, the ON LED is illuminated.
(3) INPUT (L and R) connectors:
To send a turntable signal to the PP400, you need an RCA audio cable (stereo). Use this
cable to connect:
• the left output on the turntable to the L (left) INPUT on the PP400
• the right output on the turntable to the R (right) INPUT on the PP400
The PP400 can output a line-level signal via one of the following connectors:
• RCA ((4) OUTPUT L and R)
• ¼” TRS ((5) OUTPUT)
Do not simultaneously use both PP400 OUTPUTs.
(4) OUTPUT (L and R) connectors:
To use these RCA connectors, you need an RCA audio cable (stereo). Use this audio
cable to connect:
• the L (left) OUTPUT on the PP400 to the left input on the amplier,
recordingunit, or mixer. (On a mixer, use a CD or TAPE input.)
• the R (right) OUTPUT on the PP400 to the right input on the amplier,
recordingunit, or mixer
(5) OUTPUT connector:
To use this ¼”, TRS (stereo) connector, you need an audio cable. Use the audio cable
to connect the PP400 OUTPUT to an input on the mixer, amplier, or recording unit.
Oneend of this audio cable must include a ¼”, TRS connector. If the input on the mixer,
amplier, or recording unit is:
• stereo, the other end of the audio cable must include a ¼”, TRS connector
• mono, the other end of the audio cable must include 2 TS connectors
(one for each mono input)
SERIAL NUMBER: To register your unit, use the serial number that is located on the bottom
of the PP400.
