Line inputs Four line inputs are available for connection, labeled CD1, CD2, Tuner
and Aux. Any standard ‘line level’ source can be connected to these
inputs.
Connect the ‘Rec-Out’ or ‘Line Out’ sockets on your recording device
to the ‘Tape In’ sockets of the OTO Line SE, and the ‘Tape Out’
sockets to the ‘Rec-In’ or ‘Line In’ sockets of your recording device.
Ground Post A ground post is provided for connection to those source components
that also use a separate ground terminal.
Speakers
Each channel is equipped with 3 colour coded binding posts for
connection to your speakers.
Looking from the front of the amplifier, the 3 binding posts to the left
are for the left channel and the 3 binding posts to the right are for the
right channel.
Connect the amplifiers black speaker output binding post marked as
“0” to the black / negative terminal (also marked “ – “) on the speaker.
Connect the amplifiers red speaker output binding post marked “8
Ohm” to the red / positive terminal (also marked “ + “) on the speaker.
The other red speaker output binding post is marked “4 Ohm” and
may be used with 4 Ohm speakers. If you are uncertain whether your
speaker system is specified as 4 or 8 Ohm, try the following test once
all other connections are made and the amplifier is operational.
Compare the sound quality using a familiar recording with the
speakers connected to the 8 ohm connections and then the 4 Ohm
connections respectively. The selection that produces the best
frequency balance and maximum dynamics should be used.
Mains
The OTO Line SE utilizes an IEC 320 mains inlet socket. Use the
supplied mains cable to connect the unit to the local mains supply.
The mains fuse and a spare is located in the inlet socket fuse drawer.
Special Note – Make sure that all connections are tight and clean. For
best results use good quality audio interconnects. Although it is
perfectly acceptable to use cables manufactured by other companies,
for best results and performance, we recommend our own Audio Note
(UK) range of interconnects and loudspeaker cables. For further
information, please consult your nearest Audio Note (UK) dealer, or
alternatively please feel free to contact us directly.
