How to Operate the MA2275, con't
Reset of Microprocessors
In the event the controls of the MA2275 stop functioning,
push the POWER switch OFF and wait about two minutes.
Then push the POWER switch ON followed by pushing
the STANDBY/ON Push-button. This will reset the
MA2275 microprocessors and the Tube Integrated Ampli-
fier should be functioning normally.
Note: The above condition is usually caused by either
interruptions in AC power and/or major changes that
may occur in AC power line voltage.
Using a Separate Power Amplifier
There are two different ways to use a separate power am-
plifier with a MA2275. The first way is to use the separate
amplifier instead of the MA2275 built-in Power Amplifier.
Connect the Loudspeakers to the separate
power amplifier and remove the McIntosh
Jumpers that are located between the OUT-
PUTS 1 Jacks and the POWER AMP IN-
put Jacks. Refer to figures 15 and 16.
Note: The McIntosh Jumpers must be
connected, between the above
mentioned jacks, when the MA2275
Internal Power Amplifier is to be used.
The second way is to use both a separate
power amplifier and the MA2275 built-in
Power Amplifier. Connect one pair of Loud-
speakers to the separate power amplifier
and the second pair to the MA2275. Refer
to page 13 for connection information.
Note: The MA2275 VOLUME Control will affect the sound
level of all the Loudspeakers.
How To Make A Tape Recording

INPUT SELECTOR Control.
2. Adjust the record level using the tape recorder volume
control and proceed with the recording process.

playback of the just recorded program source selected.
