using the line input (RCA)
how to connect a single ended RCA output to the balanced XLR input
If you are connecting to equipment with single ended RCA outputs and you would like to use
the balanced XLR input for best ground loop suppression, then use a suitably manufactured
RCA/XLR adaptor cable, such as our RCA-XLR F3 10-ANA interconnect. This connection is
recommended by TAG McLaren. More details to the cable are found in the Appendix.
The signal connection of the RCA input and the XLR are connected internally. Do not connect
both connections at the same time as this might damage your equipment!
When the RCA input is used the XLR shortening link, connected when
you receive the 250x3R from the factory, must be inserted between
pin 1 and pin 3 of the XLR input connector. This is necessary to
obtain the correct gain and to reduce the noise pickup.
If you connect an RCA output of your av processor or preamplifier
with the RCA line input of the 250x3R then you should use a hi-
quality, well screened RCA-RCA audio cable, such as our RCA/RCA
F3-10-ANA interconnect.
The signal connection of the RCA input and the XLR are connected internally.
Do not connect both connections at the same time as this might damage your
equipment!
using the balanced input (XLR)
The signal connection of the RCA input and the XLR are connected internally.
Do not connect both connections at the same time as this might damage your
equipment!
In order to use the XLR connection you need to remove the XLR shortening plug, if connected.
Please store the shortening plug safely for later use.
If your are connecting to equipment with balanced outputs then use a high quality XLR-XLR
cable, such as our XLR/XLR F3-10-ANA interconnect.
