X260.5 Owners Manual
Looking at the rear panel you will see the IEC 320 AC power cord receptacle, a mains power switch, two pairs of output connectors, a pair of binding post connectors for remote
Make sure that the mains power switch is off (down). Plug the AC cord into the back of the amplifier, and then into the wall. Then turn the breaker switch on (up). The lights in your house may blink when the power supply charges the capacitors; this is normal. This mains power switch is not to be used as a safety disconnect during servicing and is not a substitute for unplugging the power cord.
On the front panel, the “Standby” LED indicator should be glowing blue, indicating that the power is on. The “Power” LED should not be on. If the “Power” LED is on, don’t get excited, just use the front panel
OK, so the amplifier is sitting there in
Some powered subwoofers require an audio signal ground reference and their makers may suggest that a black speaker terminal is where this voltage reference might be found. On complementary designs, which would be typical of all power amps produced by Pass Laborato- ries™, this is an incorrect and unsafe assumption. On all Pass Labo- ratories™ power amplifiers a reference of 0 volts will be found only at pin 1 of the XLR input or at the shell of the RCA input.
Reference connections for these devices require special consideration when used with our product. If you have such a device, and wish to use it with our product, please contact our Foresthill, California fac- tory for specific instructions.... you have been warned.
