Connecting the A-933—Continued

Connecting a Turntable

Connecting a Preamp

 

 

 

The A-933’s PHONO input jacks are for use with mov- ing-magnet (MM) type cartridges.

Use an analog audio cable to connect the A-933’s PHONO L/R jacks to the audio output jacks on the turn- table, as shown.

The A-933 can be used as a power amplifier with a sep- arate preamp.

In this case, use an analog audio cable to connect the A-933’s MAIN IN jacks to the preamp’s output jacks. Connect the speakers to the A-933, and connect the playback components to the preamp.

Ground wire

Notes:

If the turntable has a ground wire, connect it to A-933’s GND terminal. With some turntables, con- necting the ground wire may cause hum, in which case it should be disconnected.

If the turntable has a moving-coil (MC) type car- tridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC phono preamp. In this case, connect the turntable to the phono preamp’s input, and connect the phono preamp’s output to the A-933’s PHONO L/R jacks.

Connecting a TV or Other Component with an Audio Output

Use an analog audio cable to connect the A-933’s LINE L/R jacks to the analog audio output jacks on the TV or other component, as shown.

Note:

If your TV has no audio output, you can connect the A-933 to an audio output on your VCR and use its tuner.

Notes:

Do not connect a component that does not have an output volume control, because the sound will be out- put at maximum volume and may damage the A-933 and your speakers.

To turn on the MAIN IN function, press the [MAIN IN] button for 3 seconds until the indicator lights up blue (page 19).

When the A-933 is used as a power amplifier, the remote controller and the following functions are dis-

abled: Volume control, Muting, system functions, Tone/Direct function, subwoofer output, and Record- ing. Some of these functions can be performed on the connected preamp.

Connecting Another Component’s Power Cord

The A-933 has an AC OUTLET on its rear panel. This can be used to connect the power cord of another audio component that you intend to use with the A-933.
