Description

 

 

 

 

 

The amplifier is switched on and off using this button at the front panel.

 

 

When switched off the device is not internally separated from the AC

 

 

power and reacts to a signal at the input "POWER CONTROL INPUT"

 

 

(15). That is why it is not possible to switch off the amplifier as long as

Switch on and off

POWER (5)

a 12V trigger signal is present at this input.

 

 

WELCOME

 

 

 

As a precaution, after switching on, the volume setting should

 

 

be reduced.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To play back stero music via loudspeakers at least one pair of them

Individually activate or

 

must be attached to the amplifier (a practical choice would be

SPEAKER

connectors "A"). The output you use must be activated using the

deactivate speaker

A/B (1)

corresponding button "SPEAKER" (LED illuminated). Only if a second

outputs A and B

 

pair of speakers is used, it is necessary to activate the second speaker

 

 

 

 

output "B".

 

 

 

 

 

 

A short touch on the button for the desired input channel

 

 

("LINE1"..."LINE5" or "BALANCED") changes to the playback of the

 

 

audio source connected there. The front panel as well as the remote
