Input Connections

If your preamplifier has RCA outputs, it can easily be connected to the amplifier inputs as shown. The amplifier will boost the preamplifier’s output, up to a level suitable for driving speakers.

Make sure that the positive speaker wires do not touch the negative speaker wires, or any chassis metal. This will cause a short circuit and may activate the protection circuitry. The 12 VDC trigger connection shown can be used to turn the amplifier on when the preamplifier turns on. This is the preferred method of activating the IPS-1. Alternatively, you could use the amplifier’s SIGNAL switch position. The amplifier will then automatically turn on when a preamp audio signal is received.
