INPUT CONNECTIONS

The Stage One allows for analog, digital, and video outputs for seven sources to be connected to the rear panel inputs. You also have the ability to switch the Audio and Video signals independently of each other. For easiest opera- tion, the digital, analog, and video outputs from each source should be attached to the same source input (lined up vertically) on the rear panel of the Stage One. If different types of video outputs are available, one of each type (S-video, Composite, and Component/RGB/HDTV) can be connected to a sin- gle source input. This ensures that video output will be available regardless of the input selected on the monitor.

AC INPUT

Using the supplied IEC power cord, plug the Stage One into the wall outlet.

DIGITAL INPUTS

The rear panel of the Stage One provides ten digital inputs (three Toslink, and seven Coaxial). Any S/PDIF digital output can be connected to any, or all ten digital inputs. For inputs with both a Toslink and Coaxial digital connection, Toslink takes precedence. It is possible to connect both a Toslink and a Coaxial digital signal to a single source input, but only one will be operational at a time. There is no need to "assign" the digital inputs, as one is provided for each source connection. For easiest operation, the digital output of the source should be connected to the same source input (lined up vertically) as the analog and video outputs of the source.

ANALOG INPUTS

The rear panel of the Stage One provides seven stereo analog line level inputs. The analog output of any line level source can be connected to any, or all of the stereo analog inputs. The input gain of the analog inputs should be adjusted for each analog source that you have connected. For optimum per- formance, the gain should be adjusted to the highest point before clipping occurs. (See “Advanced Features.”)

VIDEO INPUTS

The rear panel of the Stage One provides 17 Video inputs (seven composite, seven S-video and three component). The Stage One does not perform any video conversion. For example, if you connect the S-video output of a DVD player to the Stage One, that signal will only be available at the S-video out- puts.

MULTI-CHANNEL ANALOG INPUT

The Stage One provides an 8-Channel Analog Input. This DB-25 connector can be used to connect the analog outputs from a DVD player with a built-in decoder. The 8-Channel Analog input is passed directly to the analog pream- plifier section. Individual channel level adjustment, as well as overall level adjustment, is available for this input.

ANTENNA INPUT

Spring clips for an AM loop antenna, and a coaxial type terminal for a 75-ohm FM antenna connection are provided on the rear panel to allow the built-in AM/FM tuner to be connected to an antenna.
