Connecting Analogue Audio Sources
• Connect a stereo audio interconnect cable between
each analogue source component and one of the
analogue input sockets AN1 - AN4.

stereo analogue audio sources. These include-
Analogue output from CD/DVD Players
Analogue output from DAB or FM Radio tuners
Analogue output from a TV

Connecting a Turntable
The PHONO/MM input is compatible with turntables fitted
with moving-magnet cartridges. The turntable will have a
cable with two plugs, and often a thin ground wire with a
tag.
• Connect the plugs to the PHONO/MM sockets on the
back panel. Connect the white plug to the left socket
and the red plug to the right socket.
• Unscrew the GROUND terminal then fasten the ground
wire (where fitted) under the terminal.
Digital Audio Inputs
• Using a suitable Toslink optical or Digital phono
interconnect, connect each digital audio source to one
of the inputs DIG1 - DIG4.
Make a note of the input number used for each source as
the inputs can be re-named at the set-up stage.
The digital audio inputs are compatible with a number of
different digital audio sources. These include-
Digital Audio output from a CD player
Digital Audio output from a TV
Digital Audio output from a games console
Digital Radio
DVD players
Digital Satellite receivers
Digital tape/disc recorders
NOTE: The digital audio inputs are only compatible with
2 channel PCM source material and will not reproduce
multi-channel surround sound.
USB audio input
The USB audio input may be used to connect the audio
feed from a Windows PC or Apple computer.
With a USB connection in place, DSD Audio files can also be
played.
• Connect a cable from a USB outlet of the computer to
the USB B input.
To avoid possible damage to your audio system, it
is essential to disconnect all system components
from the mains supply before connecting or
disconnecting audio interconnects.
