Precaution for connection

This unit comprises 7 independent power amplifiers, each being capable of reproducing the same quality sound through its channel. Note that you should connect an input source and a speaker to each channel in use. For channels that are not in use, we recommend that you do not connect any input source or speaker.

Balanced Input (XLR terminal)

Connect AV controllers or pre amplifiers with balanced outputs for high-quality sound.

Connector ground terminal: Chassis grounded

The pin assignments for this terminal are given above. This pin assignment conforms to the standard adopted by the Audio Engineering Society. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the AV controller and verify that its output terminal is compatible with the pin assignments for this terminal. If it does not, wire it so that the output pins connect with the proper input pins.

Input terminal

1. Connecting the input terminal

Match the pins and insert the terminal until you hear a “click.” Ensure that it is secure by gently pulling it.

2. Disconnecting the input terminal

Pull out the connection cord while holding down the lever.

Note:

•When using this balanced connection for a specific channel between the AV controller and RDA-7.1, set the INPUT SELECT switch to the XLR input side to select balanced input. Next, use balanced cables and connect the balanced output from the AV controller to the corresponding balanced input on the RDA-7.1.

•Do not connect anything to the RCA-type audio input jack.

Unbalanced Input (single end RCA input)

Connect AV controllers or pre amplifiers with single- ended outputs for high-quality sound.

Note:

•When using this single-ended connection for a specific channel between the AV controller and RDA-7.1, set the INPUT SELECT switch to the RCA input side to select unbalanced input. Next, use RCA cables and connect the single-ended output from the AV controller to the corresponding single-ended input on the RDA-7.1.

•Do not connect anything to the balanced input jack.

INPUT SELECT /

This switch is located between the balanced input and single-ended RCA input for each channel. Use this switch to select the input type for its channel.
