Connection Tips
Before setting up your new sys-
tem, please consider the following :
Always make sure that your
com po nents are all turned
OFF, or unplugged before
making or changing any
connec tions.
• Whenever possible, route the
power cords away from the
signal cables or speaker wires
to pre vent any hum or in ter -
fer ence heard in the speak ers.
• Choose reliable hookup cables.
They should be fully shield ed
and as short as pos si ble.
• Some patch cords can be a
very tight Þ t and there is usu-
ally a preferred method of get-
ting them off. Some have to be
removed with a twisting action.
Be gentle or you may dam age
the jacks of your preampliÞ er,
or other com po nents.
• Some audiophile cables should
be hooked up in one direction,
these are usually marked with
arrows.
• It is usual for the right channel
patch cord plugs to be red and
the left channel con nec tions to
be white, grey or black.

nal supplies 12 VDC whenever the

Functions
Most functions of the preampliÞ er
can be operated by the remote con-

You can connect an external IR
receiver to the preampliÞ er's rear IR
port. This will allow you to operate the
preampliÞ er from a remote location.
Place the preampliÞ er or any
external Infrared receivers in a place
where there is a direct line of sight
from your listening position.
