Example-3: RCA Input from Portable Audio Player
Note: Portable devices such as smartphones or MP3 players typically have an output
voltage of 1Vrms or less. While the linkT’s auto turn-on circuit will detect very low signal
levels, in some cases the gains may need to be adjusted for reduced total volume range
when using the portable device as the system master volume control.

Example-2: RCA Input from Aftermarket Radio
Note: When using a receiver’s internal power IC to drive speakers directly and provide the
linkT with signal, note that its speaker outputs will likely clip below the maximum master
volume level. Adjust gain settings accordingly for optimum unclipped volume range.

Note: When adding time alignment only for front speakers and retaining deck power to
rear speakers, it is recommended to use the fader to reduce rear speaker level enough to
provide some ambience while minimizing any affect to front staging and image focus.
