XLR BALANCED INPUTS: XLR connectors fitted to this amplifier are for use with
balanced line signals from audio preamplifiers. Balanced signals are carried via a
three way cable that connects all three pins at each end of the interconnect cable.
The XLR input pin configuration used in all Plinius product is as follows:
PIN 1 to GND
PIN 2 to +Signal
PIN 3 to -Signal
NOTE:
Because of the way balanced XLR inputs are configured it is not possible to
connect both XLR and RCA at the same time.
AMPLIFIER CONFIGURATION SELECTOR (ACS)
The Amplifier Configuration Selector (ACS) is a unique switching method that exploits
all of the operational features of your PLINIUS SA-Reference Power Amplifier. By using
this switch it is possible to operate your amplifier with either balanced or unbalanced
signals and achieve a stereo or mono output.
Stereo or Mono use of this amplifier will depend on the type of ancillary equipment
employed with your system. If you wish to use this amplifier as a single channel (mono)
Power Amplifier in a stereo high fidelity system, then another SA-Reference will be
required for the other channel. This will provide an extremely high performance option.
The ACS switch options are:
RCA STEREO: This option provides a stereo output via both left and right output
channels from a stereo signal connected to both left and right input RCA inputs.
RCA BRIDGED MONO: This option configures your amplifier to drive one loudspeaker
from one unbalanced signal fed to the RIGHT RCA input.
