Making the Connections

Using Two CM-30 Speakers for Stereo Playback (Stereo Link)

Stereo playback is enabled simply by connecting two CM-30 units with a single or double audio cables (phone type). This function is called “Stereo Link.”

Since the CM-30’s mixer section operates in stereo, the L or R channel signal can be output from a STEREO LINK OUT jack. This means you can enjoy stereo playback by making connections as follows.

●Basic (up to five inputs) stereo playback (Connection example 1)

●Stereo playback (up to ten inputs) using the mixers of both CM-30 units (Connection example 2)

Example 1

You can connect up to five input sources.

Example 2

You can connect up to ten input sources.

Operation

1.Connect the devices to the L and R CM-30.

2.Connect the STEREO LINK OUT R jack on the L CM-30 and the STEREO LINK IN jack on the R CM-30.

3.Connect the STEREO LINK OUT L jack on the R CM-30 and the STEREO LINK IN jack on the L CM-30.

■About the Volume and Tone Settings

Adjust the R and L volume levels separately using their MASTER knobs.

You can adjust the equalizer (LOW and HIGH knobs) independently for the L and R sides.

Basically, they should be set to the same positions, but you can adjust each one as necessary to suit the needs of a particular setup.

*The STEREO PHONES jack will provide stereo playback of only the sources connected to the local speaker (L or R).
