Here is a typical input setup System installation There will most likely be a number of cables involved in the installation of your home entertainment system. Pre-planning is essential in order to maximize system efficiency. We recommend the following as a means of helping you reach that goal: Make a diagram of your proposed system by laying out the relative location of each component in the system. Then lay out the proposed cable runs between them. Number each cable and record its length

Making the connection Before doing anything, ensure that the power switch on the amplifier’s front panel is in the ‘off’ position. Again, it is recommended that you locate a separate AC power outlet for the amplifier, one that is not shared by any other audio component in the system or any other house hold component. This will eliminate the possibility of the amplifier ‘modulating’ the power being supplied to the component and compromising the signal originating from that component. Locate

Note: When turning equipment ‘off’, the amplifier should always be turned off first, then the preamplifier. When turning equipment ‘on’, the preamplifier should always be turned on first, then the amplifier. Before turning anything on, ensure the preamplifier is at a low volume level. Troubleshooting PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE POSSIBLE SOLUTION No sound 1. Power cord not plugged in. 1. Reconnect power cord. (‘on’ LED not illuminated) 2. Power off at AC source. 2.
