BASIC PREAMPLIFIER OPERATION

MUTE

Front panel: To mute, press the active source's input button.

Remote control: Press the mute button.

Front panel: To unmute the KRC-3, press the active source's input button again. If the source is changed while the KRC-3 is muted, press the new source's input button a second time to unmute the KRC-3.

Remote control: Press the mute button.

OPTIONAL CONFIGURATIONS

S3/proc: For simplified integration of an A/V surround sound processor, the S3/proc input can be set to operate as a unity gain stage. In this mode, when

the S3/proc input is selected, the KRC-3's volume control and balance is

disabled. Volume control is transferred from the KRC-3 to the A/V surround processor connected to the S3/proc input. The left and right channel volume

settings are now independent of the KRC-3's volume control and the overall system level is determined by the A/V surround processor exclusively.

S4/tape: The S4/tape input is set to operate as a tape monitor. A tape monitor

allows you to listen to the output from your recorder and enables you to

examine your recording for imperfections or distortions. After selecting a source for recording (B1, S1, $2, or $3), repeated pressing of the S4/Tape

button will toggle between the tape recorder output (LED illuminated) and the input source (LED not illuminated).

If your system does not include a tape recorder, configured for operation as a standard input identical

the S4/Tape input can be to the S 1 and $2 inputs.

NOTE: The factory default positions sets S3/Proc as a standard input and S4/Tape as a tape monitor input.
