CONNECTION OF ONE OR MORE POWER AMPLIFIERS
SA-T7MK
The fact that this amplifier is equipped with two RCA stereo preamplifier outputs enables you to bi-wire
your loudspeakers using adequate speakers and one or more additional main amplifiers. For the best
rendering, amplifiers with transmission inputs (e.g. studio amplifiers) should be connected with the op-
timal output labeled „1" in „Outputs". Vincent amplifiers generally have input impedances > 10 kOhm
and can be connected to outputs „1" and/or „2" anytime. Your HiFi specialist will advise you on this.
CONNECTIONS FOR THE STANDBY CONTROL
Many AV-Systems consist of a multitude of individual components. To avoid the necessity of switching
them on and off before and after every use, many manufacturers have equipped their devices with what
is known as "POWER CONTROL" circuit or "TRIGGER". This kind of remote-controlled standby circuit is
used primarily for preamplifier and power amplifiers. Particularly for preamplifiers and main amplifiers
this kind of remote standby control is utilized, as power amplifiers are often placed far from other devices
near the speakers. To employ these functions, direct or indirect cable connections must be made between
the preamplifier (or integrated amplifier) and all the devices which support this function. The "POWER
CONTROL" function operates in such a way that each switching on or off of one device in the system
(usually the preamplifier) automatically brings about the switching on or off of all the connected devices
which support this function. Please keep in mind that all devices which respond to the power control are
not disconnected from the mains network when switched off. They are set to a standby state instead.
For connecting cables, two-core cables with 3.5 mm jack plugs (mono) are used. For each connection
between two devices one of those cables is needed.
If you don't wish to use this function or if the other components do not support it, all you have to do is
leave out these cable connections.
The SA-T7MK is equipped with two output connectors for the power control. Here, the switching signal
generated by the SA-T7MK is available for other components of the system. Two HiFi components that are
able to react to the power control signal can be connected directly to the amplifier's power control outputs.
If more than two devices, which can be controlled, are to be connected, then it is necessary to make the
