The Basics presetting audio input sources Before mixing your audio sources (devices connected to LINE 1, PHONO 1, PHONO 2, LINE 2, LINE 3, LINE 4), you must set their input signal level to each channel input (CH1, CH2, CH3). You do not have to mix every connected input source. 1. To preset the PHONO 1 input source, set PHONO 1/LINE 1 to PHONO 1. 2. Play the selected input source. 3. Adjust the volume on your headphones or receiver to a comfortable listening level. 4. Slowly adjust CH1 unt
