SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
It's tempting to plug in your new Preamplifier Tuner and have great sound pour out. Before you do that, take
a few minutes to plan out how you want the Preamplifier Tuner to fit into your audio system. Keep the follow-
ing suggestions in mind:
••
List all components in your system and indicate which jacks of the Preamplifier Tuner each compo-
nent will be connected to. Your Preamplifier Tuner has six sets of inputs. It is convenient to connect a
DVD player to the input labeled DVD or a VCR to the input labeled V1 or TAPE, etc. However, your
equipment may differ from the labeling on the back of your Preamplifier Tuner. In most cases you can
connect any type of source to any input. For example, if you have a satellite receiver you can connect
it to V2. You can also reprogram the source name that will appear on your Preamplifier Tuner's front
panel.
••
Also note the length of the cable for each component's connection and describe how it should be
routed. You may want to label each cable with a name or number at both ends. Use high quality con-
nections to maintain high quality audio.
••
Think about the type and length of cable you need and obstacles in the cable's path (doorways, fur-
niture, walkways, etc.). To decide which ones are right for you talk to your dealer about the various
cable products that are available.
••
For safety, keep all cables out of high traffic areas (hallways or doorways) and away from equip-
ment that radiates power, including amplifiers, power cords, heaters, etc.
••
If you might expand your audio system later, keep these ideas in mind as you plan current cable runs.
••
To provide the best tuner reception, make sure the antenna is at least 6 ft away from the
Preamplifier Tuner and any other equipment that may produce high frequency interference such as
Personal computers, CD players, halogen lamps, etc.
SOURCE CONNECTIONS
To connect your analog sources to your Preamplifier Tuner, take a look at the back panel. You will notice that
the RCA-type audio input and output connectors are identified by colors, RED for right channel and WHITE
for the left channel audio.
Audio source Input -
To connect a source such as a CD player
to the Preamplifier Tuner's analog inputs, use the analog left and right
outputs from the CD player. Attach one end of the audio interconnect
cable to the left (White) audio output on the CD player, then attach
the other end to the left (white) CD audio input on the Preamplifier
Tuner. Repeat for the right (red) audio connection. Use theses same
instructions for connecting to other audio sources such as a DVD, tel-
evision, satellite receiver, cable box, etc.
TAPE or audio recorder -
Connect a cassette deck or
other recording device to TAPE OUTPUT.
Attach one end of the audio interconnect cable to the left (white)
audio input on the TAPE recorder, then attach the other end to
the left (white) TAPE audio output on the Preamplifier Tuner.
Repeat for the right (red) audio connection.
TAPE OUTPUT will
output only the audio source selected.
