AUDIO SIGNAL AND AC POWER CONNECTIONS
Audio Signal and AC Power Connections
Audio Signal Connection
Audio connections for the PA 2000 are straight-
forward: connect the output of the source unit,
which may be the multiroom outputs of an AV
receiver or “whole-house” audio system or the
rear surround outputs of a processor or a receiv-
er to the audio
Input Jacks
¡
.
In some multiroom systems, you may wish to
have the same signal feed multiple amplifiers. In
that type of installation, the input feed to the PA
2000 may be daisy-chained to an additional
amplifier by connecting the audio
Output Jacks
™
on the PA 2000 to the input jacks on a sec-
ond PA 2000 or another amplifier.
When making connections with the RCA-type
plugs on interconnect cables, make certain to
gently
but firmly insert them into the jacks on
the back of the PA 2000. Loose connections can
cause intermittent sound and may damage your
speakers. The barrel assembly of some high-quali-
ty RCA plugs may be very tight, and it is impor-
tant to ensure a proper connection between the
interconnection cable and the input jack.
AC Power Connection
The final step in the installation of the PA 2000
is to connect the power cord. First, connect the
female end of the cord into the
AC Power
Cord Receptacle
ª
on the rear panel.
Once the cord has been firmly connected to
the PA 2000, insert the plug end into an AC
power outlet.
SAFETY NOTES:
• Due to the current draw of the PA 2000, DO
NOT connect the power cord to the accessory
outlet on audio/video components.
• Should the power cord become lost or dam-
aged, be certain to replace it with a replace-
ment that meets or exceed the original specifi-
cations. Use of power cords with insufficient
capacity, such as those used with computers
or office equipment, may create a safety
hazard.
