AC Power connection
The AC power connector of Ultima Pre is at the back of the unit. Plug the female end (socket) of the
power cord into the power connector of the preamplifier, and the male end(plug) of the power cord into
AC wall socket or AC extension socket. The CPA8000 features universal voltage high frequency power
supplies and will operate automatically from 65V to 260V AC, 50 or 60Hz.
For optimum operation it is recommended that the CPA8000 is connected directly to the wall socket via the power cord
provided.
