terminals marked 

RIGHT CHANNEL OUTPUT

on the back 

of your 100P. Then connect the black terminal of your right

connection

You will need a preamplifier (such as our PA10 or PA20R)
connected to a sound source (such as our CD player CD20R or
tuner T20) to feed into your 100P. Use a good-quality, screened
phono-phono audio cable to connect the output of your
preamplifier to the sockets marked 

INPUT left

and 

right

on

the back of your 100P.

Check that the power button is 

out

so that power is off when you

plug in

(1)

. Using the cable supplied, connect the socket on the

back of your 100P to an AC supply outlet. For the best sound
quality, we recommend that you do not use multi-plug adaptors.

release it

1. If you prefer to use a cable which does not have BFA plugs, please see page 16

2. If your loudspeaker terminals are not colour coded – red corresponds to positive

(+) or signal and black corresponds to negative (–). For each channel the
terminals of the same colour are connected together
