Source Components to Amplifier

The Tiger accommodates just about any audio source. You can connect the Tiger to personal portable CD, MiniDisc, or tape players, MP3 players, mini- component and portable stereo systems, component CD and DVD players, televisions, personal computers, game consoles, MIDI instruments and mod- ules, mixing consoles, recording devices, and many other sources.

There are three sets of stereo inputs on the Tiger. The LINE input on the front panel and the AUX input on the rear panel of the amplifi er unit are recom- mended for use with most consumer audio equipment. The AUDIO input on the rear panel is better suited for source components that provide a high-level signal, such as professional audio equipment with standard 0dBu (.775V) line- level output or the amplifi er or headphone outputs of some consumer audio products.

If you fi nd that the sound is too loud with the AUX or LINE input, even at low volume control settings, try using the AUDIO input.

Front Panel LINE Input

The Tiger amplifi er unit features a convenient front-panel LINE input that accommodates portable source components, such as MP3 players, that will be frequently connected and disconnected from the system.

You can use either the two left/right phono jacks or the adjacent stereo mini- jack to make the LINE connection. You can even have two different source components connected to both the phono jacks and the mini-jack. Note, however, that the phono jacks are disconnected when the mini-jack is in use.

Front Panel DC Output

Included on the front LINE input panel of the amplifi er is a convenient DC Output connector. It is a standard USB connector, as found on

personal computers, but its sole function is to supply DC power to portable source devices, such as some MP3 music players. If you have a player that can derive power from a USB connection, you can use this DC Output instead of internal batteries or a separate AC adapter to power your device.

Do not attempt to power larger devices that require high current using the

Tiger’s DC Output.

AC Power Connection

After you have made all satellite, woofer, and input connections, plug the female end of the supplied AC power cord into the matching connector on the back panel of the Tiger woofer. Make sure the power switch/volume control on the amplifi er is in its OFF position (fully counterclockwise). Then, plug the other end of the power cord into a wall outlet.

About Program Sources

Some sources, such as mini-component and portable stereo systems, have no line-level outputs—only speaker outputs. If you plan to connect the Tiger to such a high-level source, you should use the AUDIO input along with the appropriate adapter cables. In some cases, with very high level amplifi er outputs, it will be necessary to use an adapter with an attenuator designed to protect the Tiger’s input from overload. If you need such an adapter, please consult an audio specialist.

If you have the choice between using low-level (“line”) outputs or higher level (e.g., headphone) outputs on any source device, choose the former as they will likely provide a cleaner, better-sounding signal. You can have all three sets of inputs connected to different sources at the same time. You will be able to switch among them using the Tiger’s input selector control.
