⑧ PHONE / HEADPHONES
Make sure the volume control is turned down before
connecting or disconnecting headphones. Listening at high
levels can cause permanent hearing damage.
This taken Jack size 6.35 mm allows connection of stereo
headphones. It is advisable to use a listener with an impedance
between 32 and 600 Ohms headphones.
When the headset is connected, the output to the speakers are
then cut.
⑨ MP3 INPUT / JACK 3.5mm
This jack is for connecting the analog output (typically a
headphone output) of a portable audio player to the amplifier.
⑩ SOURCE SELECTOR
These buttons select the active input of the amplifier and the
signal sent to the speakers, to headphones and Preamp output
and REC LINE. The buttons on the remote control are identical to
those buttons. On the front of the EX-214, press the button once
corresponding to the source you want to hear so that the LED
on the button frame lights up in white for MP3 / DIGITAL / LINE1
sources. By pressing the same button again, the LED will be
displayed in red to listen to the BLUETOOTH / PHONO / LINE2
sources.
MP3
This key enables the «MP3» input located on the front of your
amplifier.
BLUETOOTH
This key enables the Bluetooth connection to listen to music
from your smartphone or other Bluetooth sources.
Connection between the EX-214 and your smartphone:
Turn on the EX-214, then press the Bluetooth function
located on the remote control or on the button at the front ⑩
of the amplifier. Wait a few minutes (2 or 3) then refresh your
Smartphone to find the Bluetooth network entitled:
« EX-214 ». Thus, your smartphone is connected as a
multimedia player.
DIGITAL
This button activates the digital input on the back of the
amplifier. It allows listening to the digital source connected to
the amplifier with integrated digital-to-analog converter.
PHONO
The Phono input is for connecting a turntable. Most turntables
have outputs in the "RCA" format but whose signal is not
compatible with the "line inputs" of the amplifiers. To be
able to use a turntable, it is necessary to use a compatible
"phono preamplifier" with the used cell. The EX-214 built-in
phono preamplifier is compatible with MM (Moving Magnet)
cells.
LINE 1 and LINE 2
These keys are used to select the sources connected to the RCA
inputs (line level) of the same name located on the rear panel
of the amplifier.
