Operating Instructions
INTRODUCTION
This amplifier
is
unique
in
the field of audio engineering.
By making use
of
the
most
recent techniques , this amplifier offers
you years of listening pleasure of unequaled quality.
We advise you to read these operating instructions carefully; you
will then quickly become familiar with the facilities which this
amplifier offers,
INSTALLATION
Remember the following important points when installing the
amplifier:
• Do not expose the amplifier to rain
or
moisture, as this may
cause damage to the amplifier.
•
All
amplifiers produce some heat during operation and this heat
must be allowed
to
dissipate freely, Do not close any ventilation
openings and insure that there is adequate ventilation space
behind, beside and above the amplifier.
• Prevent extra heat from reaching the unit. Never put the
amplifier
in
the full glare
of
the sun
or
near
to
a heat source,
CONNECTIONS
The following points are important when connecting the eqUip-
ment
to
the amplifier:
• Check that the amplifier is
not
switched on,
• Make each connection individually,
• Check that each connection has been made correctly and
press the plugs firmly into the jacks,
• Always
connect
plugs or jacks marked 'L'
or
'LEFT'
to
similarly
marked jacks on the amplifier,
Do the same with jacks and plugs marked 'R'
or
'RIGHT',
• Always
connect
the 'OUT' outputs of a
recorder
to the 'IN' jacks
of
the amplifi
er
and the 'IN' inputs of the
recorder
to
the 'OUT'
jacks of the amplifier,

o 'PHONO' jacks
For connecting a record player with
an
'MM' (Moving Magnet)
or
an
'MC' (Moving Coil) cartridge.
Note: These jacks are gold-plated so that the contact
resistance between these jacks and the connecting
cords
of
the player is kept
as
small as possible,
In
order
to
maintain the
high-grade quality
of
this connection, we recommend that
connecting
cords
are used which also have gold-plated plugs.
