CONNECTIONS:

1MAIN POWER RECEPTACLE: This is a Standard 3-prong IEC power connector. Connect the detachable linecord (included in the box with

your CDMP-2600) to the power receptacle, and plug the other end of the linecord into an AC outlet.

The CDMP-2600has a universal power supply that can accept any AC voltage from 100 VAC to 240 VAC. No need for voltage select switches. It will work virtually anywhere in the world. It is less suscept- able to voltage sags or spikes than conventional power supplies, pro- viding greater electro magnetic isolation and better protection against AC line noise

2LINE OUTPUT JACKS Plug one end of the included RCA cable into LINE OUTPUT JACKS on the rear panel. Plug the other end of the

RCA connectors into any available line input jacks on your mixer. If you are connecting the CDMP-2600through a reciever, you can plug the RCA connectors into the CD or AUX INPUT JACKS on your reciever. If there are no CD or AUX INPUTS use any line level (not phono) inputs.
