Counterpoint 5000 owners....

Help a brother out and tell me what phono controls are on the front panel?I am interested in getting a 5000 based on reviews and the fact that is has some provision for changing loads etc from front.If I have a multi caridge set up with either a multi arm deck or two tables are the 5000's controls able to cope?Is it missing anything?I am a neopkyte here where the phono section had MM/MC and On/Off.Want a bit more precision but ntoudre what I need.I called Alta Vista as they are the support co as you know but they were away for the week.As ever Thnx.

this description might answer your question....?
Also: with the SA-1000 to get mc phono you inserted a jumper to enable the first FET gain stage, and the second tube stage was the same as the MM stage.
I do not know whether the SA-5000 can switch between the two on the front panel.

Tried the Altavista site but the pictures were to small and the description was't detailed enough.

You might want to go ahead and give Mike Elliot a call. He answers the phone himself and is happy to talk shop with people like us. Have had a good experience with him when asking about his amplifiers.
