8)Attach Power Cord - Connect the IEC end of detachable power cord to the amplifier, and plug opposite end into corresponding outlet. See Figure 4.
10)Connections to other components -. The input connections from the preamplifier are made via RCA jacks on the rear of the amplifier. Be sure to use high quality interconnect cables - they do make a difference. See figure 4.
11)Polarity - The Rogue M-120 amplifier is a non-inverting amplifier (positive signal in gives positive signal out) so, for best sound, care should be taken to ensure correct polarity at the
speaker terminals. If your preamplifier is also non-inverting, then connect the positive (+) outputs of your power amplifier to the positive (+) terminals of the loudspeakers and the negative (-) outputs to the (-) negative loudspeaker terminals. If your preamplifier is inverting, then connect the positive outputs (+) of you power amplifier to the negative (-) loudspeaker terminals, and the negative outputs (-) to the positive (+) loudspeaker terminals. If you are unsure whether your preamplifier is inverting, check the owners manual or contact the manufacturer. If all else fails, try both connections and listen to which sounds better (do this using several different recordings as not all recordings are made with correct phase).
