3.When Link connections have been made, power on linked components ONE AT A TIME in the order specified below. Allow each component to complete its initialization sequence before proceeding to the next component.

A.Digital Transports

B.Digital Audio Processors

C.Preamplifier

D.Power Amplifiers (begin with the first power amplifier in the slave chain)

At this point, the front panel standby LEDs on all linked components should be blinking in unison.

Note

Linked components must be powered on ONE AT A TIME in the specific order listed in step 3 (above) to ensure proper functioning of Link controls. DO NOT use a power strip switch to power on several components at once. When power is supplied to a strip, connected components that do not include a power button will automatically power on.

4.Take the linked preamplifier out of standby.

All linked power amplifiers should come out of standby as well. If this does not occur, repeat steps 3 and 4. If problems persist, contact an authorized Mark Levinson dealer.
