The preamplifier is especially suited for in-
stallation into a rack (482 mm / 19”) . If required,
it can also be placed as desired . For rack instal-
lation a height of 1 RS (rack space = 44 .45 mm)
is required .
4 Connection
Always switch off the preamplifier and the units
to be connected before making or changing any
connections!
1) Connect the line audio sources (e . g . CD
player, mixer, tape recorder) to the jacks
INPUT (5) .
2) Connect the power amplifier for the speakers
or another subsequent unit with line input to
the jacks OUTPUT (4) .
3) Connect the control voltages to the screw
terminals* (6) . The cable length and the cross
section of the control cables are uncritical .
If there is no external control voltage, the
output voltage (10 V) provided at the screw
terminals* (7) can be used . For this purpose, it
is recommended to use potentiometers with a
value of 10 kΩ and a linear characteristic (e . g .
VCA-202RN) . Connect the potentiometers
according to fig . 3 .
If a stereo source is connected, the con-
trol inputs (6) of the two channels have to
be connected in parallel according to fig . 4 .
4) Finally connect the plug of the mains cable
(3) to a mains socket (230 V/ 50 Hz) .

* To make handling easier when connecting, the screw ter-

5 Operation
1) Prior to switching on, the control voltages
should be set to 0 V to prevent loud switch-
ing noise .
2) Switch on the unit with the POWER switch
(1) . The red POWER LED (2) lights up .
3) Switch on the units connected, always switch
on the power amplifier for the speakers last .
4) When switching off the system, always switch
off the power amplifier first .
5.1 Adjusting the output level
The output level is adjusted with a DC voltage .
The control range is between 0 and 10 V, at 0 V
there is no output level . The output level will rise
linearly with the control voltage . The maximum
amplification is 1 (0 dB) and appears at a control
voltage of 10 V .
