REAR-PANEL INPUTS

Be certain that the Stage One preamp/processor, your amplifiers, and all other associated components are powered OFF before making or break- ing any connections to the preamplifier. Failure to do so may result in damage to your speakers or other equipment.

1ANALOG INPUTS

Seven stereo analog inputs are provided on the rear panel. The analog inputs are labeled for convenience only, as any line-level source can be plugged into any analog input. (See "Analog Input Level Control.")

2DIGITAL INPUTS

Ten digital inputs are provided on the rear panel: seven Coaxial and three Toslink optical. They can accept digital output from any device that delivers a standard S/PDIF signal. On the TV, DVD, and CD/LD inputs, the Toslink input takes precedence over the Coaxial input. Both may be connected simultaneously.

3COMPOSITE VIDEO INPUTS

Seven composite video inputs are provided on the rear panel. When an A/V source is selected, the corresponding video input is also selected and routed to the Monitor and Record outputs. Video inputs can also be select- ed independently of the audio inputs. (See "Selecting a Separate Video Source.")

4S-VIDEO INPUTS

Seven S-video inputs are provided on the rear panel. When an A/V source is selected, the corresponding video input is also selected and routed to the Monitor and Record outputs. Video inputs can also be selected inde- pendently from audio inputs. (See “Selecting a Separate Video Source.”)

5COMPONENT VIDEO INPUTS

Three Component Video inputs are provided on the rear panel. These are assigned to the TV, DVD and Video inputs and are high-definition compati- ble. When one of these three sources is selected, the corresponding com- ponent video input is also selected and routed to the Component Video output. Video inputs can also be selected independently from audio inputs. (See “Selecting a Separate Video Source.”)

6RS-232 IN/OUT

The RS-232 port enables the Stage One to communicate with external control devices or to connect with expansion boxes for future upgradability. This port also allows for software upgrades to be installed to the Stage One.

7IR INPUT

The external IR input on the rear panel allows for an electrical connection to an infrared receiver module.

8MULTI-CHANNEL ANALOG INPUT

A DB-25 connector is provided on the rear panel to allow a six- or eight-channel analog input from a DVD, DVD-Audio, or SACD player. Compatible RCA to DB-25 adapters are readily available from many manufacturers. (See “Input Connections.”) This input bypasses the DSP module.

9EXPANSION PORT

This port provides for expansion capability for future use should current or future formats require a method of connection not currently supplied on the Stage One.

10AC INPUT

AC Power is supplied to the Stage One via a standard IEC three-wire power cord.

11FM ANTENNA INPUT

A 75-ohm F-connector input is provided on the rear panel to attach to an external FM antenna.

12AM ANTENNA INPUT

Spring clips are provided on the rear panel to connect an external AM loop antenna.
