Installation - VINCENT SA-93 PLUS Instructions For Use Manual

Pre- and main amplifier compose the amplifier used in
High-End systems. They must be interconnected.
Your loudspeakers will be connected to the main amplifier, your
audio sources to the pre-amplifier. To achieve best performance
only quality interconnection cables as produced by Vincent should
be utilized. Consult your audio specialist dealer.
Remove plastic protective covers
Prior to the first installation, remove the plastic
protective covers on RCA and XLR connectors.
Connections
Input connectors for audio source devices and out-
put connectors for the main amplifier are mechani-
cally identical RCA jacks that must not be inter-
changed!
Connection quality
Make sure all connections are tight. Loose connec-
tions may cause noise, failure or malfunctions.
Connect carefully
Contacting the middle pin of the RCA plugs at the
pre/main interconnection cable with the outer ring
of the RCA chassis jack may lead to damages to
the main amplifier if it is active! To avoid this hazard,
connect or disconnect both devices only in switched-
off state and more than one
minute after deactivating!
Inputs
The most often used device or the audio source
providing best sound quality should be connected
to the balanced input. This way
of signal connection is more
robust and less sensible to
radiated noise.

XLR Input
Note that European and US-American XLR signal
assignments are different! This pre-amplifier uses the
European system. Both variants use identical cables.
1 2 BALANCE
If both connected devices use the same type, the
signal connection is correct (Always, if both devices
have been produced by Vincent). For the connection
O U T P U T
of two devices using the opposite system a diffe-
rent cable must be used to avoid inverting of both
channel signals. Contact your dealer for more in-
formation and support.
RCA Connection
At most audio equipment, RCA connectors are color-
coded using red for the right channel and white or
black for the left channel.
CD-Player connection
Bear in mind that the signal into the „balanced"
input (XLR) is not being transferred to the REC-
Output. It is not possible to make a recording from
a CD-Player (for example) connected there via the
