BLUETOOTH ANTENNA
Used for wireless streaming bluetooth (A2DP/AVRCP) audio capability directly from
most phones, tablests and laptops. See later section for details.

LOUDSPEAKER TERMINALS
Two sets of loudspeaker terminals are available, A (main loudspeaker terminals, top row)
and B (secondary switchable loudspeaker terminals, bottom row). Connect the wires
from your left channel loudspeaker to the Left positive and negative terminals, and the
wires from the right channel loudspeaker to the Right positive and negative terminals.
In each case, the red terminal is the positive output and the black terminal is the
negative output.
Care should be taken to ensure no stray strands of wire are shorting speaker
outputs together. Please ensure that the loudspeaker terminals have been tightened
adequately to provide a good electrical connection. It is possible for the sound quality
to be affected if the screw terminals are loose.
The use of A and B speakers affords you an easy and inexpensive way to create a
simple multi-room system.
Note: When using two pairs of speakers, use speakers with a nominal impedance
of
16
ohms.

DIGITAL INPUTS
(AXR100 ONLY)
Toslink and S/P DIF co-axial digital inputs.
Note:
To obtain the best results from your system we recommend using only high
quality Cambridge Audio interconnects. This will ensure that you hear your system
as we designed it. Please ask you dealer for details.
2
AUDIO INPUTS
These inputs are suitable for any ‘line level’ source equipment such as the audio
outputs of CD players, BD/DVD players, etc.
3
PHONO INPUT
This input has a built in phono stage. Record players fitted with Phono Cartridges
of the Moving Magnet (MM) or high output Moving Coil (MC) type (between 2-6mV
output and 30-50k load impedance) can be used. Low output Moving Coil types
(<1mV and usually 10-1000 ohm load impedance) cannot be directly connected
and will require a matching transformer or head amp. Please consult your dealer
for details. The ‘ground’ terminals on both the record player and the
AXR
should be
connected (where possible) with a ground wire for lowest noise/hum pickup.
4
REC OUT
Connect to the recording input of a tape deck, CD recorder input, etc.
5
SUB-OUT
For optional connection to the input socket of an active subwoofer if desired.
6
AM/FM ANTENNA
Tuner aerial connections for picking up radio signals. Refer to the ‘Connections’
section of this manual. For permanent use, outdoor AM/FM aerials are highly
recommended.
7
SERVICE PORT
For servicing use only. Do not connect anything here as it may result in damage.
