CONNECTING MAINS POWER

Please refer to rear panel view on Page 4. The moulded IEC connector of the supplied mains lead should be plugged into the socket (13) on the rear of the unit first and then plugged into the mains supply. The Mains power switch (16) is on the rear panel of the Integrated Amplifier. This switch is normally left on. If the unit is likely to be unattended for a long period, switch it off and unplug the mains lead from the wall.

SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

Signal Input connections:

There are five Inputs (1 – 5) on your Caspian Integrated Amplifier in addition to the Tape Input (6). All these inputs are line level inputs and will accept virtually all currently available source components.

All the inputs use RCA Phono Connectors and should be connected according to the standard convention –

Right Channel – Red; Left Channel – Black or White.

Also in accordance with standard practice, the Upper row of Phono Sockets carries the Left Channel and the Lower carries the Right Channel.

The Input Sockets are labelled with their legends upside down as well as the normal way round to assist you should you be connecting an input from a position in front of and above the amplifier.

Phono Input Connections:

As your Caspian Integrated Amplifier is a line level unit you cannot connect a phono cartridge directly to it but will need a dedicated phono preamplifier. The ROKSAN range of Caspian Phono Amplifiers accept conventional moving coil and moving magnet cartridges and have custom equalisation for the outstanding ROKSAN Shiraz cartridge. For a demonstration of ROKSAN state of the art turntable reproduction contact your authorised retailer.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For optimum performance it is recommended to use high quality inter-connect cables such as ROKSAN HDC-02Ahigh definition analogue Cable.

LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS

The right and left loudspeakers are connected to the amplifier via the rear panel binding posts (11) and (12) respectively. There are two basic types of cable –

Figure 8 cable has two insulated conductors which lie parallel, either side by side, or spaced by insulation.

Overall sheathed cable has both conductors insulated and enclosed in an overall plastic sheath. Carefully remove any overal sheath or split the figure 8 cable to a depth of about 75mm (3”).
