4. Connecting and Powering the Unit 

 

WARNING: All connections between the 

CROSBY

 and other equipment must be made 

when all units are turned off and completely powered down or unplugged. Failing to 
do so may cause damage to the 

CROSBY

 and/or other units. 

 
Please refer to chapter 3, “Back Panel”. 
 
Connect the speakers cable to the 

CROSBY

 output posts (Fig. 2, 11). 

 

WARNING: never short the positive output binding posts (red) to ground. This will 
activate the overcurrent protections and could lead to amplifier damage. 

 
Connect a preamplifier or other driving unit (as the 

YOUNG MKIII

) to the 

CROSBY

 single-

ended (Fig. 2, 5) or balanced (Fig. 2, 7) inputs. Set the input selector switch (Fig. 2, 6) 
accordingly.  
 
If the trigger feature is to be used, connect a mono cable with 3.5mm jack to one of the 

CROSBY

 trigger inputs (Fig. 2, 9). If the trigger signal must be forwarded to another unit, 

then the second input may be used as pass-through. 
 

WARNING: do not drive both inputs at the same time with different trigger signals. 

 
Connect the stock power cord to 

CROSBY

 power socket(Fig. 2, 12) and to a wall outlet. 

 
Push the power switch on the back panel (Fig. 2, 14) to turn the 

CROSBY

 on. Depending on 

the trigger mode switch setting, either the operation LED (Fig. 1, 2) or the operation LED 
(Fig. 1, 3) on the front panel will glow. The 

CROSBY

 will either activate or enter standby, 

waiting to be enabled by a suitable trigger signal. 
 

5. Cleaning the Unit 

 
The 

CROSBY

 should be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use alcohol or any 

other types of cleaning fluids as they could damage the unit. 
 
Avoid fluids from dropping or leaking inside the unit. Fluids of any type poured into the unit 
will void your warranty. 
 
Be careful not to scratch the Plexiglas front screen.
