Nº326S Preamplifier Controls & Modes
To activate and use SSP mode:
1. Make sure the Nº326S and all associated components are
powered off and disconnected from electrical outlets.
2. Connect the output connectors on the surround sound source
component to the input connectors on the surround sound
processor.
For example, if this source component is a DVD player, con-
nect the output connectors on the DVD player to the input
connectors on the processor.
3. Connect the center, surround, and subwoofer output connectors
on the processor to the appropriate input connectors on the
power amplifier(s).
4. Connect the front left and right output connectors on the
processor to the desired stereo input connectors on the
Nº326S.
For best performance, use balanced (XLR) connections when-
ever possible.
5. Connect the main output connectors on the Nº326S to the
appropriate input connectors on the power amplifier(s).
A balanced (XLR) connection between the Nº326S and the
associated power amplifier will offer the highest possible per-
formance with the best protection against RF
interference and other common mode noise.
CAUTION
BEFORE ACTIVATING SSP MODE, SET THE ASSOCIATED
SURROUND SOUND PROCESSOR VOLUME CONTROL TO
A REASONABLE LEVEL TO PREVENT SENDING
DANGEROUS SIGNAL LEVELS TO THE LOUDSPEAKERS.
6. Using the Nº326S, rotate the front panel select knob or press
the remote control select ± buttons to select the input for
which the stereo input connector selected in step 4 is
assigned.
The front panel display indicates the name and volume level
of the selected input.
