These two pages contain information for connecting
the McIntosh C1000P or C1000T Preamplifier to
other audio components and the rear panel audio
connections are indentical on both units. If both the

to the same C1000C, refer to pages 20 and 21 for
audio connections.

Unbalanced Inputs and send signals out
from the Balanced Outputs. You can also
