REAR PANEL INPUTS & OUTPUTS
IMPORTANT NOTE: CHASSIS GROUNDING
If after hooking up your system it exhibits excessive hum or
buzzing, there is an incompatibility in the grounding configura-
tion between units somewhere.
If your equipment is in a rack, verify that all chassis are tied
to a good earth ground, either through the line cord grounding
pin or the rack screws to another grounded chassis.
Please refer to the RaneNote “
Sound System Interconnection
”
supplied with this manual and available from our website for
further information on system grounding.
INPUTS 1-4 RCA jacks
INPUTS 1-4 provide dedicated preamplifiers for Input Channels
1-4 respectively. Each may operate in RIAA PHONO or LINE
mode.
PHONO / LINE switches
These switches set Input Channel preamplifiers 1-4 for PHONO
or LINE mode. Make certain these switches are set correctly for
your source.
PHONO GROUND
These lugs are provided to connect ground wires from turntables.
When using a turntable, proper grounding is essential.
MIC 1 and MIC 2 XLR jacks
The MIC 1 Input provides a dedicated balanced preamplifier
for Input Channel 5, while MIC 2 provides the preamplifier for
Input Channels 6. Each may operate in MIC or LINE mode.
Each of these preamplifiers features GAIN trim with BASS and
TREBLE tone controls.
MIC / LINE switches
These select MIC or LINE mode for the MIC Inputs. In MIC
mode, the gain range is 20 to 50 dB. In LINE mode, the gain
range is 0 to 30 dB. In addition to setting the proper gain range
for MIC or LINE level Inputs, these switches also select the
proper Input impedance.
MIC GAIN trim
These controls adjust the preamplifier for optimum dynamic
range. Each has a range of 30 dB, allowing a wide range of
sources to be used. To properly set this control, set the associated
front panel INPUT GAIN to “10”, turn the MIC ENGAGE
switch
on
and adjust the MIC GAIN so that the input SIG / OL
indicator flashes red only during very loud peaks. The front panel
INPUT GAIN control can then be adjusted as required ac-
cording to the instruction outlined above under INPUT GAIN
control.
MIC TREBLE and BASS controls
Separate TREBLE and BASS tone controls are provided for each
MIC preamplifier. These allow adjustment of the tonal response
of each Mic or Line source at the MIC Inputs. If you add a
significant amount of boost, you may need to readjust the rear
panel GAIN trims as outlined before.
