INPUTS
All audio Inputs are via gold plated RCA
type RCA connectors. All the RCA
sockets on your AMC amplifier are
marked "L" for left and "R" for right
channels, with the left channels nearer
the top of the cabinet. Your
connection leads will have a white or
black plug for left, and a red plug for right.
1. PHONO GROUND TERMINAL
The Ground Terminal is for you to
connect ground wire of your turntable in
order to eliminate possible interference
and hum loop for best possible sound
quality.

PHONO MM/MC INPUT SELECTION
SWITCH
3. PHONO INPUT (OPTION COAXIAL
IN)
This input is suitable for both moving
magnet and moving coil cartridges. For
either type of cartridge the plugs on your
turntable lead should be connected to the
phono input sockets on the rear panel of
your amplifier.
A switch adjacent to the RCA
input sockets allows the selection of
either MM or MC input. Facing the
back of the amplifier, move the switch
to the right for use with MM or high output
MC cartridges and to the left for use
with MC cartridges.
Note:
Never operate the MM/MC selector
switch with the volume control turned up
as the resultant electrical surge may
damage your loudspeakers.
To minimize hum the turntable lead
should be kept away from the mains
wiring, and any separate turntable ground
lead should be attached firmly to the
earth terminal on the rear of the amplifier.
4. OPT /
AUXILIARY INPUT
The OPT / Auxiliary input is designed for using with
Optical (OPT) input located at Top Left corner of
rear panel for Hi-Res Streamers like D-STREAM
PRIMO-HD etc or and other optical sources or for
any extra source processing a line level output,
perhaps a second tuner or CD player, or an
additional tape or video recorder wired for replay
only.
Use OPT input only. for using AUX inputs,
please take OPT output connector out from

TUNER INPUT
The Tuner input is suitable for use with most
AM/FM tuners. Connect your tuner to the
amplifier using the RCA sockets marked
"Tuner".
6.
CD INPUT
The CD input is suitable for use with any CD
player. Connect your CD player to the amplifier
using the RCA sockets marked "CD".
7.
PRE OUT/MAIN IN
Normally the pre-amplifier and power
amplifier sections of this unit are
connected together via factory-installed
U-shaped metal jumpers that bridge the
PRE-OUT and MAIN-IN jacks. Check to
be sure that they are fully inserted into the
jacks and that nothing is touching them.
By switching OFF the power and removing
the metal jumpers, you can connect a
signal processor such as a surround-sound
decoder or an electronic crossover in the
path between preamp and power amp.
Connect a cable from PRE-OUT to the
processor's input and a second cable from
the processor's output to MAIN IN.
