Getting ready to use the R-1

* Before making connections with other equipment, you must minimize the volume and turn

off the power of all of your equipment in order to prevent malfunction and/or speaker
damage.

* If you use a cable with a built-in resistor, the volume of the device connected to the line input

jack (LINE IN) may be too low. If so, you should use a connection cable that does not contain
a resistor.

The R-1 does not have built-in speakers. In order to hear the playback, you will need to
provide headphones or speakers.
You can use the R-1’s headphone jack as a digital output (optical out) for connection to
a digital device, or as a line output for connection to an analog device. Use the
appropriate cable for your device.
For details, refer to

“Connecting headphones”

(p. 22),

“Connecting digital speakers

(digital devices)”

(p. 23), or

“Connecting analog speakers (analog devices)”

(p. 24).

* Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers.

This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
