The preamplifier section of the Reference150 has two types of audio inputs: unbalanced audio signal with RCA
plugs (phono plugs) and true balanced audio signal with XLR plugs (pin 2 is positive phase, pin 3 is negative
phase and pin 1 is chassis earth), but only one tape of outputs: unbalanced audio signal with RCA plugs (phono
plugs).
CONSONANCE REMOTE CONTROL
The Consonance Reference150 can be controlled by an optional Consonance system remote control. Like other
Consonance products, the number of buttons is kept to a minimum.
The volume, channel select and mute functions of the Reference150 can be operated by using the remote
control. The Consonance system remote control will also control other Consonance products like CD players,
avoiding the need of several different remote control devices.
The remote control uses four 1.5-volt LR03 AAA batteries .
USE & PLACEMENT
The Consonance Reference150 should be placed on a flat, hard surface for proper cooling. The amplifier
performs best after being switched on for 1 hour for heating up. A certain space is required for air circulation
above and below the amplifier. The amplifier must never be placed on a carpet or similar surface that obstructs air
circulation through the component. Nor must it be covered while in use or placed on a narrow shelf or in another
confined space.
The amplifier will automatically switch itself off if overheated.
