1. Ground Screw
This is commonly used for the ground connection wire of a turn- table, to prevent any hum in your speakers. It is tied to the chassis ground, and may be used as needed. Note: It is not necessary or desirable to connect this to an electrical ground.
2. Phono Selector
If you are using a turntable with a low output Moving Coil cartridge, set this switch to the MC position. Use the MM position if it has a high output Moving Magnet car- tridge. This will correctly set the gain of the Phono circuit.
3. Audio Inputs
Any standard audio component with a line level output can be connected to CD, Tuner, Aux1 or Aux2.
Only a turntable can be connected to the Phono input. Set the Phono Selector Switch correctly to match your type of cartridge before using the Phono input.
4. Tape In and Out
Tape In connects to the output (play) of a Tape player, and Tape Out connects to the input (record).

9. IEC Linecord Socket
The preampliÞer comes with a detachable linecord which connects here.
Plug the linecord into an AC wall socket or power strip which is correctly conÞgured with the voltage speciÞed for your model.
10. AC Outlets
These three AC outlets allow you to supply power to the other components in your system. These unswitched outlets are live whenever the preampliÞer line cord is plugged into a live wall socket or power strip. They are live even if the preampliÞer is turned off.
Take care that the preampli- Þer is unplugged or turned off at the AC wall socket or supply, before connecting any linecords here.
Make sure the power consumption of all your components does not exceed 1000 Watts. Do not plug a power ampliÞer into these outlets.
