Circuit Breakers/Fuses; Signal Cable - Soundstream Rubicon Balanced X.0 User Manual

BALANCED INPUT/OUTPUT
The BALANCED X.0 crossover is designed with true balanced "Pro Audio" input/
output topology. When used with the Soundstream BLTTM or BLT4TM Balanced
Line Transmitters or any other balanced line audio source, and Soundstream
amplifiers, the BALANCED X.0 is the heart of a flexible professional quality audio
system.
1. Improved Signal-to-Noise Ratio. (S/N Ratio)
ADVANTAGES
2. Excellent noise cancellation characteristics.
3. Immune to noise radiated
The Mini-Din input and output connectors on the BALANCED X.0 carry BOTH the
left and right channel balanced audio signals. When used with a Soundstream
amplifier, the connectors also carry the *I5 Vdc "phantom voltage" which sup-
plies power to the BALANCED X.0, and also to the Balanced Line Transmitter at
the head unit. (See the diagram below:)

WIRING
POWER AND GROUND
If you are using the BALANCED X.0 with amplifiers other than Soundstream's
ground and remote on the BALANCED X.0. Please review the owner's manuals
for the other components to determine your system wiring.
Note: If you use the external power, ground and remote connections, the phan-
tom voltage inputs for the Mini-Din connectors will not be used.

CIRCUIT BREAKERS/FUSES

When using the external power connectors, the BALANCED X.0 must be fused
near the battery. A fuse or circuit breaker must be located within 18" of the bat-
tery. This will prevent a fire in the event of a shorted cable.
REMOTE TURN-ON
Connect the "Remote In" to the turn-on lead from the source unit. When +12 volts
is received, the crossover will turn on. Connect the "Remote Out" to the amplifiers
in the system.

SIGNAL CABLE

The BALANCED X.0 uses special six-conductor cables. For the inputs, you can
use the cable supplied with the Soundstream BLTTM or BLT4TM. For the outputs,
use the cables supplied with the BALANCED X.0
