6. GAIN Controls and CLIP Indicator

The GAIN controls are located next to each Zone
input on the rear panel. They are operated by
rotating the control clockwise to increase the GAIN
or counter clockwise to decrease the GAIN. When
turned fully counter clockwise, GAIN is reduced to
0 and no output signal will be present. When turned
fully clockwise, the GAIN of the amplifier is +34.9dB.

To operate the GAIN control, rotate the control’s
knob so that the desired level is achieved, a small,
flat-tipped screwdriver is typically used, see
Diagram 11.

Note: Do not apply excessive torque to the
control, it will turn easily unless at the ends of
its travel

The CLIP indicator LED is located below the GAIN
control. Flashing CLIP indicator indicates clipping is
present while playing source input.
