Connect the outputs of the source devices to the inputs “LINE1”...”LINE5” (9) of the amplifier. The output
sockets on the source equipment are usually indicated by “LINE OUT”, “AUDIO OUT” or “FRONT OUT”.
You will find information about ways to connect source equipment in their operating manuals.
Up to five line level stereo sources can be connected to these RCA inputs. The audio inputs
“LINE1”...”LINE5” (9) represent electrically equivalent standard line level inputs with RCA connection.
They have an identical function and differ only in name.
To use a record player you need a so-called equaliser preamplifier (also called a phono pream-
plifier), which is installed in the signal path between the record player and one of the high-level
inputs. Some models of record player already include this preamplifier and can be connected
directly. You will find further information in this appliance’s operating manual.
The stereo sound of appliances that use output connectors other than RCA (DIN plugs, jack
plugs) can often also be used with the aid of adaptors.
CONNECTION OF THE SOURCE EQUIPMENT
WITH RCA LINE LEVEL OUTPUTS
CONNECTION OF ONE AUDIO SOURCE
WITH XLR OUTPUT
The input “BALANCED” (11) can only be connected to a device equipped with symmetrical output. At the
source device you can recognize it by the three-pin XLR-type of the output jack. Leave the XLR input of your
preamplifier open if none of your audio sources uses this. Sometimes both types of output connectors are
provided.
