INITIAL SETTINGS

1.Make sure the main source unit is connected to the Source 1 inputs, then adjust the main source units volume to just below maximum.

2.Adjust the Source 1 input gains (top of unit) to the minimum setting and the 6500 master volume control to the maximum setting.

NOTE:

If connecting more than one input source to the

 

6500, use the Source 1 gain controls to match the

 

input level of both sources.

3.Set the filter gains to the flat (center) setting.

4.Complete all signal and power connection to the 6500.

5.Turn the system on and increase the gain on the Source 1 inputs until audible distortion can be heard. The system should be very loud at this time.

6.Reduce the 6500 master volume level and test for well-balanced and linear volume adjustment when using the Source 1 volume control.

7.When connecting a second source unit to the Source 2 input, the source one input gains (top of unit) may need further adjusting to achieve a close signal level match.
