In this case the output from the tape deck should be connected to
the regular line input marked Tape in the main input cluster on the
TL2.5.
This loud hum will not damage your TL2.5, but may damage other
components in the system if sufficiently loud enough.
Connecting a second pair of amplifiers
If you wish to use two pairs of amplifiers to drive your loudspeakers in a bi-amplified
mode you can connect the amplifiers to each of the two outputs of the preamplifier.
One pair would go to Output A and the other to Output B on the back panel of the
preamplifier.
Consult your speaker and amplifier manuals for additional installation instructions on
this mode of usage. Your dealer should also be able to give you guidance with this
procedure.
Connecting to the Turntable
If your TL2.5 Preamplifier is equipped with the optional internally retrofittable phono
stage, you can use the phono stage with either MM or MC cartridge. The VTL factory
standardly configures the TL2.5 phono stage to work with a MM cartridge. If you would
like to alter the standard setting, please follow the instructions below or contact your dealer
for assistance. The following drawing shows the location of the 12AX7 tubes used in the
phono stage. The 12AX7 tube used in location V2 is for the MC stage only and should be
of the type 12AX7 JJ, a tube with higher gain than the 12AX7s used in the MM stage in
locations V1 and V101.
