Placement of Your R/EQ-150

Your R/EQ-150 may be located with your other audio/video components. Once final adjustments have been made, you can even locate it out of sight. Try to keep your R/EQ-150 away from AC power cords or power amplifiers that might induce hum and noise. The R/EQ-150 generates virtually no heat so it does not require ventilation.

AC Connections

Connect the supplied AC cord from the AC inlet of the R/EQ-150 to a nearby AC wall outlet or power strip. There is no AC switch on the R/EQ-150; it is powered on whenever it is plugged in. Its power consumption is negligible, so you do not need to worry about switching it on and off with the rest of your system.

Connecting Your R/EQ-150 Between a Preamplifier and Power Amplifier

Connect your preamplifier’s left and right line or main outputs to the left and right input jacks on your R/EQ-150. Next, connect the left and right outputs of the R/EQ-150 to the left and right input jacks of your power amplifier.

Connecting Your R/EQ-150 into a Tape Monitor Loop

If your preamplifier or receiver has an unused tape monitor loop, connect the Rec/Out jacks of the preamp or receiver to the left and right input jacks of your R/EQ-150. Next, connect the output jacks of the R/EQ-150 to the Play/In jacks of your preamp or receiver. Press the preamplifier or receiver's monitor button to engage the R/EQ-150

Connecting Your R/EQ-150 into a Surround System

Connect your surround processor’s front left and right line or main outputs to the left and right input jacks on your R/EQ-150. Next, connect the left and right outputs of the R/EQ-150 to the left and right input jacks of your power amplifier. With additional R/EQ-150s, you can also this process for your center, surround, and subwoofer channels. Do not connect the R/EQ-150 to the processor's input to prevent overload and distortion.
