PREAMP SECTION
The following preamp specs are measured at 1 kHz
with the master EQ set flat at 0 dB, all gain switches
in the out position, nominal signal levels are with
channel level controls set at five. Minimum levels are
with channel level controls set at 10.

CHANNEL ONE INPUTS

5k ohms
Nominal input Level: -30 dBV, 32 mV RMS
Minimum input Level: -40 dBV, 10 mV RMS

High-Z Input Impedance: 5k ohms
Nominal input level: -30 dBV, 32 mV RMS
Minimum input level: -40 dBV, 10 mV RMS

CHANNEL TWO and CHANNEL THREE INPUTS
Input impedance: 22k ohms
Nominal input level: -21 dBV, 90 mV RMS
Minimum input level: -40 dBV, 10 mV RMS

CHANNEL FOUR INPUT

(Switching jack will disconnect internal speaker when
headphone plug is inserted.)

The following specs measured at nominal
