Trigger Connections
Audiolab 8300A has one pair parallel trigger connections at the real panel, can be activated
by 8300CD’s or any other source’s trigger output. 8300A can also provide a trigger signal
to another 8300A’s or any other amplifier’s trigger input. If you have an 8300 system, we
advise connecting the triggers. This will enable all 8300 units to be brought in and out of
standby along with the trigger connections.
To connect to your control unit, you will need a cable with one end to match the trigger
output of the control unit and other terminating in a 3.5mm jack plug. For Audiolab 8300
series, this will be a 3.5mm to 3.5mm interconnect.
Signal Input
Balanced Input
Balanced connections provide greater balanced headroom and
improved S/N ratio. If your source unit has a dynamic headroom
output uses the balanced connection. You need one XLR balanced
cable per channel. The socket connects to the player and the plug
normally connects to the amplifier.
Unbalanced Input
If you cannot use the balanced input, connect a high quality stereo
screened RCA phone lead from the unbalanced input of the 8300A
to a suitable output of the source unit. 8300A has AUX1, AUX2,
VIDEO, TUNER, CD, PHONO six signal inputs which may be used
for connecting any line level source.
source.
Power AMP Input
For driving the power amplifier input directly from an external source.
Only operates when Pre-Power mode is selected.
Signal Output
PRE-AMP OUT 1&2
Low impedance pre-amplifier outputs for driving external power
amplifiers, sub-woofers or signal processors. Pre-Amp outputs are
switched off when integrated mode is selected or whenever amplifier
is muted.

Mains Input
Before connecting the 8300A to the mains supply make sure that all the other
connections to your system have been properly and securely made. Make sure the
ON/OFF switch on the 8300A is switched off. Switch the mains supply off at the
wall socket, and then, using the cable supplied, connect the socket on the back
of your 8300A to an AC supply outlet. The 8300A is now ready for operation.
