Definition of Terms
Following are the definitions of key terms used in your owner’s ref-
erence manual.
Monaural Operation
Monaural operation combines the output of the left and right chan-
nels to create a more powerful single channel. In the case of the
S-275, the output increases to 550 Watts.
Balanced
A symmetrical input or output circuit that has equal impedance
from both input terminals to a common ground reference point.
The industry standard for professional and sound recording instal-
lations, balanced connections have 6 dB more gain than single-
ended connections and allow the use of long interconnect cables.
Balanced connections are completely immune to induced noise
from the system or the environment.
Single-ended
A two-wire input or output circuit. Use care when using single-
ended connections as the ground connection is made last and
broken first. Turn the system off prior to making or breaking single-
ended connections. Single-ended connections are not recom-
mended for connections requiring long cable runs.
