    The preamplifier’s control output, such as is provided with B&K series preamplifiers, can be utilized to provide a control signal to the AV6125. If more than one amplifier is being controlled, the control signal can be extended to include each successive unit by simply running a 3.5mm mini-jack cable from the CTRL OUT connector of the first amplifier to...
  • Page 11 If a source other than a B&K series preamplifier is used to control multiple amplifiers, only the control output voltage from the source is critical. It must be within the range, as indicated on the rear panel, 5-24 volts DC is required. The amplifier will provide each successive amplifier with a control voltage of 12 volts DC for reliable operation.
