ATTENTION
MakesurethepowerofthedeviceisturnedOFFbeforeanyconnectionsorwiring
adjustmentsaremade.Disregardingthisrulecanleadtopermanentdamageofthe
equipment.
1) Connecting audio sources
ConnectallaudiosourcestotheaudioinputsontherearsideoftheM2.Theseinputsare
BalancedStereoinputsandperformedusing6-pinsterminalblockconnectors,(3-pins
foreachLeftandRightchannel).TheseinputsbothacceptLineandMicrophonelevel
signalsandthegainadjustmentisdoneautomaticallybytheALC.Amonosource(such
asmicrophone)shouldalwaysbeconnectedtotheLeftinputandwhenusingcondenser
microphonesthephantompowershouldbeswitchedON.
2) Connecting amplifiers and/or speakers
Connectamplifiers(100Vorlowimpedance)tothebalancedoutputsoftheM2.These
outputsareperformedusing6-pinsterminalblockconnectors(3-pinsforeachLeftand
Rightchannel).Theamplifierconfiguration(100VorLowimpedance)andpowerneedsto
bechosenaccordingtotherequirementsofeachspecificapplication.Whentheinternal
poweramplifierkit(POW2)isinstalled,lowimpedanceloudspeakersorlinetransformer
unitscanbeconnecteddirectlytotheamplifiedoutputsoftheM2.Theoutputcanbe
switchedbetweenStereo&Mono,orcanbebridgedincasethepoweramplifierkit
