Set up the cable links in a sequence as follows. Connect the power cable between de-
vice and power supply only after all other connections have been made.
Protective caps
Prior to the first installation the protective plastic
caps must be removed from all the connections
used at the rear of the unit.
RCA connections
Mechanically identical RCA plugs are available
for input and output connections. Make sure that
you do not get these connections confused during
installation!
Make sure that you do not mix up the analogue
inputs for right and left. The RCA plugs for these
are mostly colour coded as follows: red for the right
channel, black or white for the left channel.
Contacting the middle pin of the RCA plugs with
the outer ring of the RCA chassis jack may lead to
damages to the main amplifier if it is switched on!
To avoid this hazard, connect or disconnect only in
switched-off state and more than one minute after
deactivating!
Loudspeaker connections
The use of ready-made loudspeaker cables is
recommended instead of connecting the cab-
le's central wire (strand) directly to the terminals.
Banana plugs or cable lugs ensure high security
from short-circuits and damage to loudspeakers or
amplifier.

INSTALLATION
DURING INSTALLATION PLEASE OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING ADVICE:
Ensure that bare loudspeaker wires are never able
to come into contact with each other or with the
metal on the back of the housing.
Make sure that the positive and negative loudspea-
ker wires are connected correctly. You will notice a
reduced sound quality if the connections are the
wrong way round.
Only use loudspeakers with a nominal impedance
of at least 8 Ohm (if two pairs of loudspeakers are
connected) and a nominal impedance of at least
4 Ohm (if one pair of loudspeakers is connected).
Cable connections
Make sure that all plugs fit tightly. Inadequate
connections can cause noise interference, failures
and malfunctions.
- wrong -
To make the most of the components' sound po-
tential, only high quality loudspeakers and connec-
ting cables, for example Vincent cables, should be
used. Your local dealer will be glad to advise you
about this.
