guide
Connecting
other
equipment
A
variety
of
accessory
devices
can
be
connected
to
the
Model 300,
such
as
Do1by system
and
other
noise
reduction
units,
4-channel
decoders,
fre
quency
equalizers,
and
ambience
synthesizers.
Such
devices
connect
to
the
Tape
inputs
of
the
Model 300,
or
may
be
installed
between
the
Model 300’s
preamp and
power
amplifier
by
removing
the
wire
straps
on
the
back
panel.
For
detailed
instructions
for
connecting
a
particular
device,
consult
its
user’s
manual
or its
manufacturer.
The
Troubleshooting
guide
below
is
intended
to
help you
resolve
quickly
some
of
the
problems
you
may
encounter
operating
the
Model 300
Receiver.
Using
it
may
also
help
you
to
avoid
the
inconvenience
of
returning
your
unit
to
your
dealer
or
to
Advent
for
unnecessary
service.
If a
problem
occurs on
one
program
source
only,
a component
other
than
the
Model
300
may
be
causing it.
For
example,
if you
are
experiencing
difficulties
with
a
single
channel during
tape
or
record
playing,
try
reversing
the
left
and
right
channel
tape
or
phono
connections
to
the
Model
300.
If
the
problem
reverses
itself
and
occurs now
on
the
opposite
channel,
the
tape
deck,
the
record
player,
or
one
connecting
cable
is
malfunctioning.
If
you
experience
a
particular
difficulty
with
every
program
source,
chances
are
that
the
receiver is
at
fault.
If,
after
carefully
reviewing
the
corrective
meas
ures
outlined
in
the
Troubleshooting
guide,
you
determine
that
the
Model 300
Receiver
needs
service,
refer
to
In Case
of
Difficulty
on
page
22.
