Output Mode - Luxman C-700u Owner's Manual

6. External pre switch (EXT PRE)
Input selector switch to select the external pre-input termi-
nal (EXT PRE) on the rear panel
ON: Outputs sound signals connected to EXT Pre terminal
(pre-amplifier, AV amplifier etc.) directly.
OFF: Plays back a sound source selected by the input se-
lector.
Holding down the switch for approx. 1 second toggles the
external pre switch ON and OFF.
When the external pre switch is set to ON, the external pre
indicator lights up.
When the main power switch is turned off or this unit is
in the standby state, external pre-input signals are always
provided from the unbalanced output terminal regardless of
this switch setting. The input signals connected to the ex-
ternal pre-input terminal are not provided from the balanced
output terminal.
When the external pre switch is set to ON, the volume con-
trol of this unit cannot adjust the sound volume.
Volume adjustment shall be performed at the input device
side such as the pre-amplifier connected to the external
pre-input terminal.
If a device that has no volume adjustment function such as
a CD player is connected to the external pre-input terminal,
the volume control of this unit cannot function, and there-
fore, sudden loud sound may be generated when the exter-
nal pre-input is selected, which may cause hearing loss or
damage to the speakers.
For such input devices, be sure to use a pre-amplifier or the
like equipped with the sound volume adjustment function.
After checking the sound through the speakers with volume
lowered, adjust the volume to your favorite level.
When changing the connected devices, be sure to turn off
the main power switch or set the unit to the standby state.

Every output mode can store preset values, respectively.
Refer to the descriptions about presetting on pages 20 to
21 for presetting.
8. Balance control (BALANCE)

channels.
Rotating this control counterclockwise makes the left sound
volume enhanced, and rotating this control clockwise

conditions, and rotate to make adjustment if necessary.
The adjustable value for right/left balance is up to -6 dB for
right and left each.
