Teac C-3 User Manual

System Connections
Rear Connection Panel
Power Cord
This power cord is equipped witha plug to
connect to an AC power outlet.
External dbx terminals
These eight pin-sockets are used when the
optional RX-8 dbx noise reduction unit is
used. The RX-8 Owner’s Manual has full
instruction for connection to these termi-
nals. If an add-on dbx unit is not being used,
the shorting links supplied must be left in
place.
OUTPUT
Use these OUTPUT pin-sockets to connect
the output from your C-3 to your amplifier,
receiver or other equipment.
IN/OUT (DIN)
lf the equipment you are using with your
C-3 is only equipped with DIN sockets, you
may interconnect it using this socket. If
there is a choice, however, it is preferable
to use the pin-sockets. Do not use both the
pin-sockets and the DIN socket at the same
time.
LINE IN
These are the terminals where signals enter
the C-3 from other equipment such as your
amplifier or mixer. Signals from microphones
and directly from record players are too low
in level and cannot be fed into these termi-
nals. (Note: Signals directly from record
players cannot be used even into the more
sensitive MIC input as they are not “flat”
signals and require special equalizing
circuits.)
CONTROL SIGNAL
This is a special socket used for feeding a
control signal to an auxiliary dbx noise
reduction unit.
REMOTE CONTROL RC-90
The optional TEAC RC-90 REMOTE CON-
TROL UNIT can be connected to this con-
nector to provide remote control of the
C-3 from up to about 15’ away.
