4. RCA outputs 

 

 

 
RCA unbalanced outputs are supplied for amps and recording devices not equipped with XLR inputs. 
The signal at these outputs is the same—it does not matter if you use output 1 or output 2. 
 
From left to right, looking at the back of the Altair II, the outputs are: 1

right

, 2

——2

left

, 1

When connecting to an amplifier, be sure to match the output to the correct channel on your amp. As 
you are looking at the back of the Altair II, the outputs on the left side are for the right channel, the 
outputs on the right are for the left channel. To remove an RCA plug, grasp it by the connector body 
and pull the plug out.

5. Power inputs 
 

 

These inputs connect to the power outputs of the Altair II’s separate power supply. The Altair II 
includes special spiral-wrapped, gold-plated copper cables designed for aerospace use. Each cable is 
rated to handle 30 amps. 
 
Each of these jacks mates with a matching jack on the power supply. Be sure to connect Right and Left 
Analog Power jacks on the preamp to the corresponding jacks on the power supply, and the Control 
Power jack on the preamp to the Control Power jack on the power supply. 
 

Before connecting these cables, switch off the Altair II’s power supply and disconnect it from the 
AC power. Failing to do this can damage the Altair II or its power supply.
