If your device is a turntable with an MM-type cartridge, connect its outputs to the Phono (MM) Inputs on the rear panel of the controller. If it is another type of turntable, do not connect it to the MAS 100 or MAS 110 without using a separate phono preamp, available from electronics outlets. Do not connect a turntable to another set of inputs without using a phono preamp.

Optical or coaxial digital audio S/P-DIF output: Plug one end of the digital audio cable (not included) into the player, and the other end into one of the Optical or Coaxial Inputs on the rear panel of the MAS 100/MAS 110

Remember to select the correct analog or digital input as the source by pressing the Line In or Digital In Source Selector on the remote.

7.To make analog or digital audio recordings, connect the Coaxial Digital Output or the Line Output on the rear panel of the controller to the corresponding input on an audio recorder (not included). The MAS system does not convert analog sources to the digital domain, or digital sources to the analog domain for recording.

8.Place the left and right loudspeakers as desired. It is recommended that the speakers be placed so as to form an equilateral triangle with the usual listening position. Thus, each speaker will be the same dis- tance from the other speaker as it is from the listening position.

Place the speakers at about the same height as the listener's ears.

Connect one end of each included speaker cable to the terminals on the speaker, and the other end to the terminals on the amplifier. To ensure proper performance and bass response, make sure to preserve the correct polarity by connecting the positive terminals (colored red) to each other and the negative terminals (colored black) to each other.

9.Plug all power cords for the MAS system and any external sources into unswitched AC outlets.
