MASTER INPUTS
are automatic balanced/unbalanced Inputs, which accept either a ¼" TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) plug for balanced
operation, or a ¼" TS (tip-sleeve) plug for mono operation. You do nothing different when hooking up balanced or unbalanced
lines. The HC6S is one smart dude. He
knows
what you are doing so you better watch out.

Direct Stereo INs
allow each stage to be driven separately, from any source. Whenever a plug is inserted into one of these Inputs,
the MASTER INPUTS are disconnected from that stage (and only that stage). I told you the dude be smart!
These are ¼" TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) Input jacks, each accepting both left and right channels. If you plug a regular TS (tip-sleeve)
into this jack, you will only connect the left channel.
To feed this input with an unbalanced mono signal, use a TRS plug and wire the tip and ring together.
To build a cable that will combine separate left and right cables into a single ¼" TRS, follow the diagram below, connecting all
shields. RCA connectors can be substituted for the ¼" connectors.
To use balanced mono sources, set the internal jumpers as shown on page Manual-4.

Stereo Headphone OUTs
allow any headphone with an impedance from 32 to 600 Ω. Then kick back and enjoy. (Lower and
higher impedance headphones may be used; they just won’t be very loud.)

Universal Voltage Input:
via a miniature IEC 60320 C6 appliance inlet. This mates with an IEC 60320 C5 line cord (USA
domestic). Do
not
lift the ground connection! The wide voltage range of this input allows it to be powered almost anywhere in the
world.
