    • More than 0.1 m is recommended.
    • Do not place any other equipment on this unit.
NOTE ON USE

WARNINGS

  • Avoid high temperatures.
  • Allow for sufficient heat dispersion when installed in a rack.
  • Handle the power cord carefully.
  • Hold the plug when unplugging the cord.
  • Keep the unit free from moisture, water, and dust.
  • Unplug the power cord when not using the unit for long periods of time.

Names and Functions

Front Panel

Names and Functions

  1. INPUT SELECTOR Knob
    The input terminal corresponding to the source played can be selected.

  2. LEVEL Knob
    The volume can be adjusted so that when the knob is turned to the right (clockwise rotation), the volume is increased and when it is turned to the left (counterclockwise rotation), the volume is decreased.
    Note
    For a source having many low region signals or for a volume change of large steps (LEVEL knob position: less than the 9 o’clock position), popping noises may be heard (although rare) from the speakers by operating the LEVEL knob.
    However, this phenomenon is not a failure and the noise can occur because this unit’s method for adjusting the level is done by switching the attenuation grade which is done by using a high precision rotary switch.

  3. OUTPUT SELECTOR Knob
    This unit’s output terminals are combined of an unbalanced output due to the RCA pin connector and a balanced output due to the XLR connector which are (1) and (2) and each of the outputs can be turned on/off with this knob.

    Names and Functions

  4. OUTPUT 1, 2 Terminals
    This unit’s output terminals are combined of an unbalanced output due to the RCA pin connector and a balanced output due to the XLR connector which are (1) and (2) and each of the outputs can be turned on/off with the OUTPUT SELECTOR knob.

  5. OUTPUT 1, 2 Terminals
    This unit’s output terminals are combined of an unbalanced output due to the RCA pin connector and a balanced output due to the XLR connector which are (1) and (2) and each of the outputs can be turned on/off with the OUTPUT SELECTOR knob.

  6. GAIN Knob
    This is a knob to select the unit’s gain of 0 or +6dB

  7. GND Terminal
    This is a ground reference point for audio signals.
    Caution
    Avoid connecting the ground using this terminal to equipments connected through the RCA pin connector or XLR connector. The sound quality can be deteriorated because of forming a ground loop among some equipment.
    Utilize this terminal to connect the ground of an equipment that is separated from audio signals such as the motor of an analog player, the chassis of an MC step-up transformer, or the ground from the solid earth as necessary.

  8. INPUT Terminal
    This terminal is for connecting output terminals such as CD players, phono amplifiers, and tuners. The input terminal has 3 unbalanced inputs due to the RCA pin connector and 3 balanced inputs due to the XLR pin connector.
    Caution
    This unit’s balance input/output is directly connected to the ATT transformer.
    Therefore, if an unbalanced balanced converting adaptor or so forth is connected to the balanced input/output of this unit, the actual performance cannot be carried out. On this unit’s balanced input/output, use by connecting only balanced inputs/outputs.
    Note
    For this unit, an XLR connector is used for the balanced terminal.
    The pin settings are as shown in the diagram.
    Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = HOT, Pin 3 = COLD

Trouble Shooting Guide

In case the equipment does not operate properly, check out the followings.
If it does not operate properly even after checking the advised points, disconnect the AC plug from the outlet and then contact the dealer.

Trouble Causes Measures
The sound is not heard  Is the OUTPUT SELECTOR knob set to off?  Use it with

the correct setting.
A popping noise is heard when turning the LEVEL knob| For a source having many low region signals or for a volume change of large steps (LEVEL knob position: less than the 9 o’clock position), popping noises may be heard (although rare) from the speakers by operating the LEVEL knob. However, this phenomenon is not a failure and the noise can occur because this unit’s method for adjusting the level is done by switching the attenuation grade which is done by using a high precision rotary switch.
