1. Connect and put on headphones. You can listen to one
source through the headphones while the other source
plays over the sound system.

to
CH 1, CH 2, CH 3
).
3. Press
CUE
(next to the second input source’s
CH
control).
4. Set
PHONO 1/LINE 1
,
PHONO 2/LINE 2
, or
LINE 3/LINE 4
to the second
input source.
5. Play the second input source.
6. Adjust the second input source’s volume (
CH
) to it’s
preset signal level. If using headphones, adjust
CUE LEVEL
(headphones volume) to a comfortable listening level.

or pause play.
