Here you can connect PA systems, recording decks, and
other such equipment.

LINE OUT Connectors and Jacks

You can connect mixers, recorders, and other such
equipment here.

XLR connectors supporting balanced output and

1/4” phone jacks are provided. For monaural output,
you should use the use 1/4” phone jack.

You can use the XLR connectors and 1/4” phone
jacks at the same time.
*

The EQUALIZER controls and the [VOLUME]
knobs have no effect on LINE OUT.

GND LIFT Switch

Connecting an external device to an XLR-type LINE
OUT connector may produce loop hum.

If this happens, changing the setting of this switch
may alleviate the problem.

This is normally left set to OFF.

ON: This isolates the first connector from the unit’s
ground.

OFF: This connects the first connector to the unit’s
ground.

STEREO LINK

You can use this when you’re using two KC-880 units to form a stereo system that has
even higher output (p. 14).

You connect each other’s LINK IN and LINK OUT jacks using one or two 1/4

phone

cables.

Using two 1/4

phone cables enables you to use all inputs on the KC-880 units, for a

total of eight channel inputs and two AUX IN systems.

LINK IN Jack

Connect this to the LINK OUT L or LINK OUT R jack on the other KC-880.

When the LINK OUT L jack is connected: The left-channel signal is output from
the unit’s speakers. (On the other KC-880, the right-channel signal is output.)

When the LINK OUT R jack is connected: The right-channel signal is output
from the unit’s speakers. (On the other KC-880, the left-channel signal is output.)

LINK OUT L/R Jacks

Connect either one of the jacks to the LINK IN jack on the other KC-880.

Whether the unit handles the left or right channel is determined by the jack you
use.

When connected to the LINK OUT L jack: The right-channel signal is output
from the unit. (On the other KC-880, the left-channel signal is output.)

When connected to the LINK OUT R jack: The left-channel signal is output
from the unit. (On the other KC-880, the right-channel signal is output.)
