Documented model details
- The official U.S. E1 sheet names the older OM 5E generation and separates Standard from Phono and BT.
- The shared guide describes manual cueing; the Standard lacks the switchable internal stage included on the Phono/BT versions.
Limits to weigh
- The current-reference E1 Standard AT3600L product is a different package.
- Line-only powered speakers or AUX inputs need an external MM phono stage; automatic arm return is not specified.
Check before ordering
- Check the cartridge and generation before comparing it with current E1 models.
- Use a compatible MM receiver PHONO input or add a correctly matched external stage.
- Confirm the exact unit condition, grounding lead, supply and included OM 5E with the seller.
