(+) and negaDve (–) polariDes between speakers and the amplifier. If the connecDons are mistaken, the correct orientaDon will not be obtained. 4. Select balanced input (XLR)or unbalanced input (RCA) with the INPUT SELECT switch. The amplifier possesses a balanced input (XLR) and unbalanced input (RCA) for each channel and the switch for the two is located between the two input terminals. Select the proper input type depending on the funcDonality of the connected cables and the control amplifier. 5. Make sure the TRIGGER/ON switch is in the desired status. The TPO-5300 has a unique home theater mode, which can be waked-up/turned-on automaDcally when a preamplifier outputs a 12V signal by default.
