How to connect record player
Connect·between·the·output·terminal·of·an·analog·record·
player·and·the·PHONO·terminal·of·this·unit·with·2·(R·and·L)·
pin-plug·cables.
For·some·types·of·players,·the·ground·wire·from·the·phono·
motor·or·the·tone·arm·should·be·connected·to·the·ground·
terminal·of·this·unit.·
The·phono·equalizer·of·this·unit·uses·the·MM·or·MC·car-
tridge.·If·an·MC·cartridge·with·low·output·voltage·is·used,·
set·the·cartridge·selector·on·the·front·panel·to·the·MC·posi-
tion.
The output from a record player equipped with a phono
equalizer or from an independent phono equalizer shall be
connected to the line input terminals of this unit.
How to connect recorder
1. Connection to monitor terminal
(playing)
Connect·between·the·line·output·terminals·(LINE·OUT)·of·a·
recorder·and·the·monitor·terminals·of·this·unit·with·pin-plug·
cables·in·consideration·of·R·and·L.·Now,·setting·the·moni-
tor· switch· on· the· front· panel· or· the· remote· control· to· on·
provides·playback.
2. Connection to REC OUT terminal
(recording)
When·the·sound·source·from·the·various·input·devices·is·
reproduced,·which·are·connected·to·the·PHONO·or·LINE·
terminals·of·this·unit,·setting·the·recording·switch·to·on·al-
lows·users·to·provide·the·REC·OUT·terminal·with·the·signal.·
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.·After·
the·connection,·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.
When you need not toggle an input source to be recorded
(especially when a recorder connected to the recorder output
terminals is recording), do not operate this switch.
Do not insert shortpin plugs into REC OUT. No sound is
generated.
When a CD recorder, tape recorder, or other devices are
connected, be aware that the playback sound volume
becomes low or no sound is generated if the device
extremely decreases the impedance of the line input
terminals of the recorder or causes short-circuit on the line
input terminals or if the recording switch is set to on.
How to connect PRE OUT/MAIN IN terminal
Either·the·pre-amplifier·or·main-amplifier·can·be·separately·
used.
When·the·pre-amplifier·or·main-amplifier·is·separately·used,·
set·the·separate·switch·on·the·front·panel·to·on.·
When·only·the·pre-amplifier·is·used,·connect·the·PRE·OUT·
terminal·of·this·unit·to·the·input·terminal·of·another·power-
amplifier,·and·when·only·the·main-amplifier·is·used,·connect·
the·MAIN·IN·terminal·of·this·unit·to·the·output·terminal·of·
another·power-amplifier.
When this amplifier is used without separating between pre-
amplifier and main-amplifier, set the separate switch on the
front panel to off, or no sound is generated.
Do not insert shortpin plugs into PRE OUT. No sound is
generated.
