i. For use with an~plifiers
with single-ended
(unbalanced)
inputs:
connect the RCA Main Outputs to the amplifier inputs. This constitutes
the conventional hook-up for a single-ended unbalanced system.
ii.
For use with amplifiers
with balanced inputs: connect the XLR Main
Outputs to the amplifier inputs. The pin assignments are as follows: 1 =
ground, 2 = non-inverted output, 3 = inverted output.
Make the connections
between the Main Outputs and amplifier(s)
and/or
crossovers at this time.
4. Turn-on of the Preamplifier
a. Initial
Tam-on
All source components should be off at this point. The Select switch
should be set to the Mute position and the volume control should be fully
counterclockwise. The amplifier(s) should be off.
Connect the power supply to the AC mains at this point.
The LEDs on
the power supply and KSP:7B should now be illuminated.
b. Future Use
The KSP-7B is designed to be "on" at all times. In other words, it is not
intended to be switched on and off on a routine basis. The only times it is
recommended to turn the unit off is when your system will be left
unattended for a long period of time, such as during a vacation or a
business trip.
In these cases all other equipment should be turned off,
and the KSP-7B power supply should be disconnected
from the AC
mains. When you return,
reconnect the power supply to the AC mains
before turning on other equipment.
This procedure should also be followed if you reorganize your system
and need to change wiring of the supply to the preamplifier.
D. OPERATION
Use the Select switch to choose between the various source (playback)
components for listening.
Be sure to lower the volume control
when
switching among components, as large differences in level between sources
can cause damage to other components.
There is a Mute position
that should be used when source components are
being turned on and off and at the completion of each listening session.
