Plinius Audio Plinius 9100 - Manual (Page 10)

10
It is important that you connect your loudspeakers (outputs) and source components (inputs) to the
Plinius 9100 Integrated Amplifier correctly to ensure the amplifier is not damaged, and sounds its best
with your system. Now that you have read and familiarised yourself with the connections on the back of
the amplifier, as covered in the previous section, we will describe in detail the way in which you can
connect the amplifier to your system.
Connect your tuner, CD player, tape decks, etc, to the corresponding RCA inputs on the back of the
Plinius 9100. Make sure you connect the red coded cable to the red RIGHT RCA input, and the black (or
white) cable to the black LEFT RCA input. Also make sure the RCA connectors are a snug fit and are
inserted all the way in.
Next, connect your loudspeaker wires to the output posts. Connect your right loudspeaker (i.e. the one on
the right of you when seated in your normal listening position) to the right output terminals, ensuring that
the red positive (+) terminal is connected to the red terminal on your loudspeaker. Do the same with the
black or negative (-) terminals.

In order to record music to tape, or some other line level recording device, these devices will need to be
connected to the tape 1 and tape 2 outputs. Turn the record selector on the front panel to the input you
wish to record from, and the amplifier will now send signal to both tape 1 and tape 2 outputs. Note that
the volume control does not adjust the recording level - this is done at the recording device itself.

A line level output is provided on the back of the Plinius 9100. If you wish to use the Plinius 9100 as a
pre-amp only, or to send signal to another amplifier, fit the interconnect cable to the pre out outputs. Note
that the pre out connections provide signal from whatever the source selector knob is currently set to.

Quality of the connections must be examined to ensure that high-performance, trouble-free operation is
enjoyed. Check that the connections are tight but do not over tighten. If bare wires are used make sure
that no loose strands of wire short across the other terminals or the amplifier chassis. When using plugs
such as bananas, be sure to use good quality plugs with a firm fit.
