STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO SET-UP USING SINGLE POWER AMP

●Please also refer to the “System Set-Up #1” drawing on the facing page.

●Cables needed:

2 Pair: Speaker to Binding Posts, the banana plug type (Speakers B, C)

1 Pair: 1/4” TRS Balanced to Monitor Line output “A” (Powered Speakers)

6 Pair: RCA I/O to Devices

2 Pair: 1/4” TRS Balanced to Device “A” L/R I/O

1 Pair: 1/4” TRS Balanced to “SOURCE” L/R Input

1 Pair: 1/4” TRS Balanced to Power Amp L/R Inputs

1 Pair: Power Amp Out to “FROM POWER AMP OUT” Binding Posts (banana plugs)

●Make sure SRM-80 and all other devices are switched “OFF” before making any cable connections.

●Decide which devices will be labeled “A”, “B”, “C”, and “D”. Device “A” should be any pro level balanced units, such as a DAT machine. Label the Output Select Switch and the speaker pairs on the front panel tabs. Use adhesive labels so you can relabel for different confi gurations.

●Mount the SRM-80 in your rack. Depending on your setup, it may be easier to cable all your gear before mount- ing the SRM-80 in your rack. Otherwise, go ahead and mount it now.

●Set AMP/SPK - B/C Switch to SPK - B/C.

●Connect passive speaker cables to “SPEAKER C” and “SPEAKER B” Binding Posts.

●Connect Power Amp L/R Output cables to “FROM AMP OUTPUT” Binding Posts.

●If you have the optional SRM-RU remote unit, which we highly recommend, connect its 5-Pin cable to “REMOTE.”

●Connect 1/4” TRS Balanced cables from your powered monitors to MONITOR LINE OUTPUT “A” L/R.

●Connect 1/4” TRS Balanced cables from MONITOR LINE OUTPUT “B” L/R to your power amp “IN” L/R.

●Connect RCA cables from “L/R In/Out” to devices “B”, “C”, and “D”, according to your setup plan.

●Connect 1/4” TRS Balanced cables from “A” L/R, I/O to device “A”

●Connect 1/4” TRS Balanced cables from “SOURCE” L/R to source device. (e.g. mixing console stereo out or soundcard out).

●Set the Ground Lift Switch to the position that reduces any hum or buzz.

●Set the “0db / +4db” switch to the appropriate meter scale for the equipment being used.

● Power up your equipment, being sure to turn on your power amp last.

●Set “SPEAKER TRIM” controls at about 75%. After powering up the system, adjust levels as needed. To dial in your speaker levels use broadband pink noise and sound level meter. The Alan Parsons/Stephen Court align- ment CD is very good, and a decent meter can be had for about $40 at Radio Shack.

For using more than 1 pair of power speakers or multiple power amps see System Set-up #2 on the next page.
