Unbalanced Input and Output
Unbalanced Input from preamplifier, accepts a standard unbalanced input (RCA). The input connection is the uppermost connector, indicated by red inner ring. Line Output to other amplifiers (e.g.
Never apply signal to the Balanced and Unbalanced inputs simultaneously.
Balanced Input
Accepts a signal from a preamplifier with balanced outputs via high quality XLR connectors. The use of good quality balanced interconnects allows the input signal to be relatively immune to noise and external effects caused by the use of long interconnect cables, helps reduce hum loop noise and aids in the cancellation of distortion products.
The pin assignments of the balanced XLR input connector is as follows:
Pin 1: Signal ground
Pin 2: Signal +
Pin 3: Signal – (inverting)
Shield ground: Chassis ground
