2. Connector Details
This section, with sections 3 & 4 below, presents all details necessary to
make or modify cables for use with all combinations of the KBL and KPA.
After reading these sections, check all the cables you intend to use to make
sure they are appropriate for your installation.
a..Gener~:[ .. Information
Different configurations
of the KBL and KPA require different
cable
terminations.
The connector assignments for the KBL and KPA inputs
and outputs are given.
b. KBL Connector Assignments:
B-l, B-l: female 3-pin XLR
S-l, S-2, S-3, S-4: female RCA
Record Outputs : 2 sets, female RCA
Main Outputs: 1 set on female RCA
1 set on 3-pin male XLR
c. KPA (~)nnector Assi~arnment: All are female RCA
3. Connector Termination _T~es
For all terminations:
Make sure wire color and pin numbers match at both
ends of the cable.
a. Standard RCA Termination; uses either coax cable or two-conductor
coaxial cable:
Center pin = audio signal
Outer ring = ground: when using two-conductor
coax cable one
center conductor is connected to the outer ring at both ends; the
shield is connected to the outer ring at only one end. This end should
be marked and used at the input end of the cable. For example, this
end would go, to the amplifier when the cable is run from preamp to
amp.
Used for all RCA inputs and outputs on the KPA and the KBL when
operated with single-ended components.
Dta.ndar.d XL.I~ T¢rmination: uses two-conductor coa~al qable:
Pin 1 = ground
Pin 2 = non-inverted signal (also called 0 or + signal)
Pin 3 = inverted signal (also called 180 or - signal)
Used on inputs B-l, B-2 and Main Output of the KBL when used in
either stereo or dual-re, no.
