CONNECTION OF A RECORDING DEVICE
CONNECTION OF TWO ADDITIONAL
MAIN AMPLIFIER CHANNELS
If you want, you can use the RCA sockets “OUTPUT REC” (11) on the back of the appliance to connect an
analogue stereo recording device (e.g. CD recorder, cassette recorder etc.) or another appliance that is inten-
ded for receiving the unchanged, fixed stereo output level (line level) from the signal source selected on the
amplifier at any given time. The output level is independent from the volume setting but reacts to the “MUTE”
(17) command. The signal of the input “MAIN INPUT LINE6” is not available for recording at this output!
Connect this signal output to the signal input (“LINE IN”, “TAPE IN” or “REC IN”) on the recording appli-
ance using RCA cables. Please note that some recording equipment can have a slightly detrimental effect
on the audio signal quality. Some recording devices have rather low input impedance, which can slight-
ly alter the input signal voltage. For maximal music enjoyment we recommend that you connect to the
“REC” terminal only for as long as the recording is actually being made.
You only need the “OUTPUT PRE” sockets (13) if you want to use a separate stereo amplifier or two mono
amplifiers to supply two additional loudspeakers. This makes sense if you intend to use two more loud-
speakers for stereo music playback, for example in a separate zone (another room of your home). These
loudspeakers are then connected to the speaker outputs of the additional amplifier(s). The amplifier out-
put connections “OUTPUT PRE” (13) must be connected with the input connectors of the main amplifier,
in most cases labelled “INPUT”, “POWER AMP IN” or “MAIN INPUT”.
Many devices which can be controlled by a switching signal (not preamplifiers or integrated
amplifiers), have two terminals which do not differentiate between input and output. In this case
either of the two can be selected.
"POWER CONTROL" sockets of preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers must not be interconnec-
ted! All receiving devices must not be connected to more than one preamplifier or integrated
amplifier (directly or indirectly)!

Instead of each stereo main amplifier shown here you can alternatively use two mono main amplifiers.
The output signal is independent of the setting of the loudspeaker switches (1).
