UNBALANCED INPUTS
This is the main power amp input jack for most applications, and should connect to the "Unbalanced Output" on your preamp of choice (preferably an SWR Interstellar Overdrive or Grand Prix!). This input utilizes a standard 1/4" phone jack. Input impedance for the unbalanced input is 33K ohms. Maximum input level is 16 volts RMS.
BALANCED INPUT JACK
Some preamps are equipped with XLR output jacks as a superior option to regular 1/4" patching. An electronically Balanced (XLR) Input Jack is provided for premium signal integrity. Input impedance for
the balanced input is 10K ohms. Maximum input level is 8 volts RMS.
Pin assignments for the Balanced Input is American Standard as follows:
Pin 1 = ground Pin 2 = + Pin 3 = -
GROUND LIFT
A ground lift is provided for the Balanced Inputs. In the normal (out) position of the push switch,
Pin 1 on the XLR connector is grounded. In the Lift (in) position, the ground on Pin 1 is disconnected. When using the Balanced Inputs, always be aware of the position of the ground lift switch. This function only affects the Balanced Inputs and does not affect the Unbalanced Inputs.
SLAVE OUTPUT

SPEAKER OUTPUT SECTION
The following section of the manual will deal with the proper connection of speaker cabinets to the power amplifiers in the Power
750.Some of this ground has already been covered in the "Getting Started
supplement that section and provide information in greater detail, as power amplifiers, impedance and speaker cabinets are all crucial in determining how best to operate your new Power 750.
