Rear Panel Connections - BBE 382ISW - REV 2 User Manual And Reference Manual

Rear Panel Connections

1. AC POWER CORD INLET: Plugs into AC power receptacle. U.S. Model, 100-120Vac, 50/60Hz. All other
models, 200~240Vac, 50/60Hz.
2. FUSE: Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the fuse holder located in the bottom portion of the AC Power
Cord inlet. Carefully pry the fuse holder free from its compartment to access fuse. (Note: Replace with
250VAC, 200mA fastblow type fuse.)
3. AC SELECTOR SWITCH: This switch is set at the factory to match the AC power requirements of the
country where it will be sold and should only be adjusted by a qualified technician.
4. OUTPUT: The output of the 382isw can be taken from the 1/4" Phone Jack or the RCA Jack. Both are
unbalanced and are the same point electronically. This allows both outputs to be used simultaneously,
eliminating the need for a "Y" cord in the event multiple outputs are required. The recommended single
load impedance is at least 10k Ohms. If both outputs are being used, a minimum of a 22k Ohm load per
device is required. (The "load" is determined by the input impedance of the next subsequent component
in the signal chain.) The maximum output is rated at +20dBu. The output impedance of the 382isw is
1K ohms. NOTE: Actual output level will vary due to the selected position of the Process, and the actual
input signal level.
5. INPUT: The input of the BBE 382isw is an unbalanced connection. Although is can be either a 1/4"
Phone Plug or an RCA Plug, it is recommended that only one input source is used. Both jacks are the
same point electronically, however, due to the input/output impedance characteristics of most audio
devices, a loss of signal may occur and/or damage to a component if both inputs are utilized. The input
impedance of the 382isw is 47k Ohms. The maximum signal level is +16dBu.
6. SUB WOOFER OUTPUT: The unbalanced low impedance line level output of the BBE 382isw can be
taken from the 1/4" Phone Jack or the RCA Jack.
WARNING! To prevent possible speaker or amplifier damage, always
power-up peripheral devices first, wait 10 seconds, and then turn on
the power amplifier. Turn off power amplifier first, then power-down
peripheral devices.
