You can use the A-1VL as power amplifier by connecting a preamplifier.
Using the DIRECT Function
DIRECT
1
Press the DIRECT button.
ON:
The DIRECT function is enabled. When connecting a preamplifier to the A-1VL, the A-1VL will
work as a power amplifier. The audio signal from the component connected to the preamplifier will be
output.
OFF:
The audio signal from the component connected to the A-1VL will be output.
Notes:
• While the DIRECT function is turned on, the A-1VL works as a power amplifier and the VOLUME
control of the A-1VL will not change the volume level. Instead, when you turn off the DIRECT
function, the A-1VL outputs the audio signal at the level that its volume control is positioned. Take
notice the A-1VL’s VOLUME control position before turning off the DIRECT function.
• Even when the DIRECT function is enabled, the audio signal from the component selected using
the input selector control will be output through the PREOUT terminal.
