Connecting Clarett 4Pre to loudspeakers
The 1/4” jack LINE OUTPUTS 1 and 2 on the rear panel will normally be used to drive monitoring
speakers. Self-powered monitors (e.g., typical computer speakers) have internal ampliers, and
may be connected directly. Passive loudspeakers will require a separate stereo amplier; in this
case, the outputs should be connected to the amplier’s inputs.
All the line output connectors are 3-pole (TRS) ¼” jack sockets, and are electronically balanced.
Typical consumer (hi-) ampliers and small powered monitors will have unbalanced inputs, either
on phono (RCA) sockets, or via a 3.5 mm 3-pole jack plug intended for direct connection to a computer.
In either case, use a suitable connecting cable with jack plugs at one end.
Professional power ampliers will generally have balanced inputs.
