SAFETY & CARE CONSIDERATIONS
CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING CABLES
In order to eliminate potential damage to the speakers and other components in the system, always turn off the amplifier
before unplugging or plugging in the preamplifier’s power cord. This caution is also applied to plugging in or unplugging the
interconnect cables running from the preamplifier to the amplifier.
When plugging in or unplugging interconnect cables running from source to preamplifier, always turn down the preamplifier's
volume control to minimum and if available mute the preamplifier first.
POWER LINE MODULATION INTERFERENCE
During heavy passages, the power needs of the amplifier may fluctuate considerably. As these needs are felt at the power
source, the line voltage available will in turn fluctuate, based on the instantaneous power requirement of the amplifier. It is an
effect somewhat like one person trying to hold on to the end of a rope while another person at the other end is jerking it at
random intervals. Therefore, we recommend that you:
AVOID CONNECTING THE PREAMPLIFIER OR THE SOURCE
COMPONENTS TO THE SAME POWER SOURCE AS THE AMPLIFIER.
To do so may subject the preamplifier and its sources to power line modulation interference which could affect the operation
of the component, thereby resulting in a degraded audio signal from the source.
THE INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Located on the rear panel, they are:
IN PUTS
There are 6 input signal connections to the AV6000/AV654 amplifier
through high quality, gold-plated connectors. They accommodate audio
cables utilizing standard RCA plugs (See Fig. 1(a)].
0UTRUI5
There are 6 sets of high quality, 5-way binding posts; one set for each
channel. They are designed to accept a banana-type plug or a spade lug
connector [see Fig. 1(b) & (c)].
DO NOT REMOVE CABINET FEET. KEEP AMPLIFIER WELL VENTILATED AT ALL TIMES.
