Connecting digital audio sources to your BasX PT1 or TA1
Connect your digital audio sources to the appropriate inputs.
Note: The digital inputs are designed to accept STEREO digital audio signals, and will not work
with encoded digital surround sound audio signals. Some of your source devices may require
you to configure them to deliver a stereo signal.
Note: If you plan to use Bluetooth sources then be sure to connect the included Bluetooth
antenna to the Bluetooth Antenna connector on the rear of the unit.
Connecting analog line level audio sources to your PT1 or TA1
Connect your stereo analog line level sources to the CD or Aux Inputs on the PT1 or TA1.
Connecting a turntable to your BasX PT1 or TA1
If you have a turntable with a direct output, then it should be connected to the Phono Input on
the PT1 or TA1, and the Phono Input Gain Switch should be set for the type of cartridge you have.
If your turntable has a separate ground wire, connect it to the Phono Input Ground Lug.
Note: The manufacturers of some cartridges may specifically instruct you to use unusual
settings; for example, some moving coil cartridges may specify that you use the "moving
magnet" setting for proper output level. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
Note: Some turntables have a built-in phono preamp and a line-level output. If so, then their
line level output should be connected to a line level input on the BasX PT1 or TA1.
Connecting a trigger-enabled device to your BasX PT1 and TA1
If your amplifier has a trigger input, you can configure your amplifier to automatically turn on
when you turn on your PT1 or TA1 by connecting a trigger cable between the Trigger Output of
the PT1 or TA1 and the Trigger Input on your amplifier. (You may need to configure your amplifier
to work with an external trigger.)
Line Voltage
Both the BasX PT1 and BasX TA1 have circuitry that enables them to automatically detect the
proper line voltage and configure themselves automatically when you plug them in. Both will
operate on either 115 VAC or 230 VAC at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
