Set up the cable links in a sequence as follows. Connect the power cable between device and power sup-
ply only after all other connections have been made.
INSTALLATION
Protective caps
Prior to the first installation the pro-
tective plastic caps must be removed
from all the connections used at the
rear of the unit.
RCA connections
Mechanically identical RCA plugs are available
for input and output connections. Make sure that
you do not get these connections confused during
installation!
Make sure that you do not mix up the analogue
inputs for right and left. The RCA plugs for these
are mostly colour coded as follows: red for the
right channel, black or white for the left channel.
Contacting the middle pin of the RCA plugs with
the outer ring of the RCA chassis jack may lead to
damages to the main amplifier if it is switched on!
To avoid this hazard, connect or disconnect only in
switched-off state and more than one minute after
deactivating!
Speaker cable connections
The use of ready-made loudspeaker cables is
recommended instead of connecting the cable’s
central wire (strand) directly to the terminals.
Banana plugs or cable lugs ensure high security
from short-circuits and damage to loudspeakers or
amplifier.
DURING INSTALLATION PLEASE OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING ADVICE:
Make sure that bare loudspeaker wires never come
into contact with each other or with the metal on the
back of the housing.
Make sure that the positive and negative loudspea-
ker wires are connected correctly. You will notice a
reduced sound quality if the connections are the
wrong way round.
Only use loudspeakers with a nominal impedance
of at least 8
Ω
(if two pairs of loudspeakers are con-
nected) and a nominal impedance of at least 4
Ω
(if
one pair of loudspeakers is connected).
.
Cable connections
Make sure that all plugs fit tightly. Inadequate con-
nections can cause noise interference, failures and
malfunctions.
To make the most of the components’ sound poten-
tial, only high quality loudspeakers and connecting
cables, for example Vincent cables, should be
used. Your local stockist will be glad to advise you
about this.
