Connecting Source Components

Connect your input sources as shown below. Once the source is connected you may select it by pressing the front panel Source selector (FP17) to step through your various input choices. The RR 2150 will show which input is currently enabled by displaying the name on the front panel display.

Phono

Plug your turntable’s output cables into the L/R Phono inputs (RP10). Make sure you’ve connected Left to Left and Right to Right. Next, attach the ground connection from your turntable’s tonearm to the ground connector screw terminal (RP1).

Finally, set the phono cartridge sensitivity selector switch (RP9) to either MM (moving magnet) or MC (moving coil) to correspond with the type of cartridge you are using. Note that some high output moving coil cartridges work better when this selector is set to MM.

USB

Use a “fast USB” cable to connect a compatible USB-enabled source component to the RR 2150’s rear panel USB 2.0 input (RP6).

Tape

Using shielded RCA-to-RCA cables, connect your recording device’s analog audio outputs to the RR 2150’s L/R Tape inputs (RP13). Next, connect your recording device’s analog audio inputs to the RR 2150’s L/R Tape outputs (RP13).

There are two further points you need to remember:

nThe tape outputs “fixed-level” in that they are not affected by the RR 2150’s volume control.

nYou must select the source you want to record by using the front panel Record Selector (FP18).

If your recording device has the 3.5 mm stereo miniplugs often used on portable audio products, use an optional adaptor cable to complete your connections.

Aux

Connect a portable music player (iPod®, MP3 player, etc.) or any other playback device with a stereo 3.5 mm jack for either headphone or line-level output to the RR 2150’s front panel Aux input (FP13).

CD/DVD

Using shielded RCA-to-RCA cables, connect your CD or DVD player’s analog audio outputs to the RR 2150’s CD/DVD inputs (RP12). As with other sources, make sure to connect Left to Left and Right to Right.

Video

Connect the analog line-level audio output from any A/V source (VCR, satellite or cable box, etc.) to the Video input jacks (RP11) using shielded RCA-to-RCA cables.

NOTE: The RR 2150 does not have any inputs for the video from a DVD player or other video source device. Any video connections should be made directly to the an appropriate input on your display device.

Connecting Your RR 2150

External Loop

This external processor loop (RP14) allows you to insert a wide variety of external devices such equalizers or surround processors into the RR 2150’s signal path. However, its use is optional. If your system doesn’t need the added flexibility, make sure that the blue LED in the External Loop button (FP16) is not illuminated. Since the External Loop may be switched in or out, it is best suited to devices that you might use with some input sources, but not all.

Using shielded RCA-to-RCA cables, connect the external processor’s analog audio outputs to the RR 2150’s L & R analog audio inputs. Next, connect the external processor’s analog audio inputs to the RR 2150’s analog audio outputs.

Remember these two points.

nYou must push the front panel External Loop button (FP16) to route the audio signal to and from the external processor. The button’s blue LED will light when the external loop is active.

nThe external processor loop is a “fixed level” loop. It is not affected by the RR 2150’s Master Volume Control.

Preamplifier Outputs/Main Amplifier Inputs

The RR 2150 is shipped with U-shaped jumpers that connect the preamplifier and power amplifier sections of the receiver. For most systems no change is needed here, as you will use both sections of the RR 2150. However, if you wish to use an optional, external amplifier, remove the jumper plugs and connect the left and right output jacks on the RR 2150 to the matching inputs on your amplifier. Save the jumper plugs for use should you later wish to return to normal operation.

These jacks also provide a means to insert an equalizer or other device controller in the audio signal path when you wish to have that device ALWAYS be used. A good example of this is the external equalizer/controller used with certain brands of speakers.

To connect an external processor so that it is always in the audio path, remove the two U shaped jumpers, but save them should they be needed in the future.

Connect the RR 2150’s L & R Preamp audio outputs (RP16) to the inputs of the external processor. Next, connect the outputs of the external processor to the RR 2150’s Main amp audio inputs (RP17).
