FAQ

Will Fono Mini A2D work with any MM cartridge?

Yes — it is compatible with all standard moving‑magnet cartridges. 

Can I digitise vinyl directly to a computer?

Yes — connect via USB to your PC/Mac and use any audio‑editing software (e.g. free tools like Audacity) to record and save vinyl as digital files. 

Do I need a separate power supply or amp?

The unit includes its necessary PSU; however, to play vinyl through speakers you still need an amplifier (or powered speakers) — this device provides the phono pre‑amp, not the power amp.

Care & Maintenance

Place the unit on a stable, vibration‑free surface. Ensure your turntable’s ground/earth wire is connected to avoid hum. Use quality RCA cables to connect to your amplifier or DAC. When using USB‑digitisation, use a stable, grounded USB port on your computer. Avoid exposure to moisture or extreme heat.
