The phase button on the front panel can be used to change the phase from 0
°
(non-inverted) to 180
°
(inverted), to restore absolute phase on source materials
that have been recorded with the incorrect phase.
• Push the button in to select 180
°
or release it to select 0
°
The correct phase setting will give a more open and spacious reproduction of
the music, which is especially audible as the sound decays.

The A30.1 Integrated Amplifier allows you to make a recording of any source
to the tape output. If your tape recorder provides a monitor output you can
compare the recording to the original source (A-B monitoring).
To make a recording
• Connect the TAPE OUT sockets to your recorder inputs.
• Select the source you want to record.
To monitor the recording
• Connect the tape recorder monitor output to the TAPE INPUT sockets.
• Press the
MONITOR
button on the front panel to switch between the
monitor output and the original source.
When the monitor output is selected an indicator is shown above the
MONITOR button on the front panel display.
The MONITOR button has no effect when the TA source is selected, and the
monitor indicator will flash to indicate the error.
