How to connect a recorder
1. Connection to MONITOR terminals (playback)
Connect the line output terminal (LINE OUT) of a recorder
and the MONITOR terminals of this unit with pin-plug cables
in consideration of R and L.
When the monitor switch on the front panel is turned on,
the playback of the recorder is possible.
2. Connection to REC OUT terminals (recording)
When the sound source from the various input devices is
played back, such as the PHONO or LINE terminals of this
unit, the signals are also provided to the REC OUT terminal.
Connection between the REC OUT terminal of this unit and
the line input terminals (LINE IN) of the recorder with pin-
plug cables is required for recording on the recorder. You
can enjoy listening to the sound from the speaker system
and record the sound at the same time.
These output signals for recording are not affected by the
control functions such as the volume control and tone con-
trol functions.
Do not insert shortpin plugs into REC OUT. No sound will
be generated.
When a CD recorder, tape recorder, or other devices are
connected, be aware that the playback sound volume be-
comes low or no sound is generated if the device decreas-
es the impedance of the line input terminals of the recorder
extremely or causes short-circuit on the line input termi-
nals when the recording switch is set to on.
How to connect a power amplifier
Connect between the input terminal of an output device
such as a power amplifier and a line output terminals (ei-
ther LINE-1 or LINE-2) of this unit with a pin-plug cable.
At this moment, exercise extra care not to conduct wrong
connection between the right and left channels. If the right
and left channels are connected reversely, the localization
of sound images is deteriorated, thus failing in normal ste-
reo playback.
If the grounding of the pin-plug cables is inadequately con-
nected, noises including hum may be generated, resulting
in an adverse S/N ratio. Surely insert the connection plug.
