Rear Panel Connections

1.AC POWER CORD: Plugs into AC power receptacle. U.S. Model, 100-120Vac, 50/60Hz. All other models,220-240Vac, 50/60Hz.

2.FUSE: Turn cap on fuse holder counter-clockwise to remove fuse. (Note: For U.S. Model, replace with 250Vac, 1/2A Fastblow type fuse. For all other models, replace with 250Vac, .125A Fastblow type fuse.)

3.OUTPUT: The output of the BBE 882 can be taken from the 1/4” stereo TRS Phone Jack or the XLR Jack. Both are balanced and the same point electronically. This allows both outputs to be used simultaneously, eliminating the need for a “Y” cord in the event multiple, balanced outputs are required. The recommended single load impedance is at least 10k Ohms. If both outputs are being used, a minimum of a 22k Ohm load per device is required. (The “load” is determined by the input impedance of the next subsequent component in the signal chain.) The maximum output is rated at +23dBu. Pin #2 is considered the hot or “+” signal. The output impedance of the BBE 882 is 600 ohms. NOTE: Actual output level will vary due to the selected position of the BBE Process, and the actual input signal level. If both the XLR and Phone Jacks are being used, both must be either balanced or unbalanced. Otherwise a loss of signal level will occur.

4.INPUT: The input of the BBE 882 is a balanced connection. Although is can be either a TRS 1/4” stereo Phone Plug or an XLR Plug, it is recommended that only one input source be used. Both jacks are the same point electronically, however, due to the input/output impedance characteristics of most audio devices, a loss of signal may occur and/or damage to a component if both inputs are utilized. Pin #2 is considered the hot or “+” signal. The input impedance of the BBE 882 is 14.7k Ohms. The maximum signal level is +23dBu.

5.CHANNEL A: These connections function the same as CHANNEL B.
