INSTALLATION for C-8S
The C-8S Professional Audio Compensator with Stereo Control is a
complete C-8 Compensator with the addition of a "STEREO MODE SELECTOR
SWITCH," "STEREO BALANCE" and ganged dual "VOLUME CONTROLS".
Shipped with the C8s are two 6 foot shielded leads and one 3 foot shield-
ed lead. These will be used in interconnecting the system.
To interconnect the C-8 and C-8S for monaural-stereo reproduction,
complete the following procedure. Use the C-8 for the left channel
and the C-8S for the right channel.
The C-8 Is first modified as follows:
1.) The heavy inter-unit cable connecting the C-8 to the power
amplifier Is disconnected at the amplifier end.
2.) With a pair of cutting pliers, remove pin #2 from the octal plug
of the inter-unit cable. In a monaural system pin #2 carries the signal
from the preamplifier to the power amplifier. In a stereo system the
signal must be obtained from the main output jack on the back of C-8.
3.) After removing pin #2 the inter-unit cable Is reconnected to the
power amplifier.
4.) On C-8's with serial #10600 and above the input marked "MIC" can
be simply converted to preamplification and equalization for tape heads
by cutting one wire on the input selector switch, (see figure B.)
On serial numbers below 10600 the conversion must be done at the factory
The cost of factory conversion is $5.00. Tape heads can, of course,
be used in "PHONO #1" on all C-8 compensators without any conversion.
For proper tape head connection see the top paragraph on page 4 of the
C-8 Instruction manual.
