CONNECTING MAINS POWER
Please refer to rear panel view on Page 4. The moulded IEC connector of the supplied mains lead should be plugged into the socket (15) on the rear of the unit first and then plugged into the mains supply. The Mains power switch (14) is on the rear panel of the Amplifier. This switch is normally left on. If the unit is likely to be unattended for a long period, switch it off and unplug the mains lead from the wall.
SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
Signal Input Connections:
There are two types of input on the Kandy
All the inputs use Gold plated RCA Phono Connectors and are designated as follows:

If you wish to use the amplifier for
The output of the Kandy Amplifier can then be trimmed down 7dB by using the Trimmers (7, 8 & 9) on the back panel.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is always better to use the Straight Inputs when there are no requirements for level adjustment. Even when connected to the Kandy DVD 5.1 audio output, it is generally not necessary to connect to the Trimmed inputs. In most cases the surround speakers can be run from the Straight input and only when the centre channel speaker is noticeably different in output to the surround speakers would the signal require connection to the Trimmed input. Otherwise use the Straight inputs and just set the integrated amplifier volume high enough to achieve the same loudness from all speakers at the listening/viewing position. The overall volume can then be adjusted using the Kandy DVD volume control or the volume control of a
LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS
