Audio Connections

Input Connections

For each input channel there are 3 pins of a Phoenix connector for analogue inputs.
There is also a 6 pin Phoenix connector for one stream (two channels) of AES3 digital audio. The three
terminals marked 'In' should be used as the AES3 input to the device. The 'Link' terminals are intended
to feed a buffered version of the input on to another device. The 'Link' output will still work even
when power is not applied to the device. Note that only two channels of AES3 digital audio are
available. The Dante option permits more channels of Digital Audio inputs.
The HOT, + or 'in phase' connection should be made to the + pin of the Phoenix connector.
The COLD, - or 'out of phase' connection should be made to the - pin of the Phoenix connector.
The '⏚' Pin of the input connectors is internally connected to the chassis. The shield of the input
cable should always be connected to the '⏚' Pin of the input connector to ensure that EMC
performance and regulations are met.

Using unbalanced connections

Please note that the use of unbalanced connections is not recommended, however when connecting
the amplifier to an unbalanced audio source, the signal conductor should be connected to the '+'
terminal. The 'Cold' conductor or cable screen should be connected to the '-' terminal with a short
connection made between the '-' pin and the '⏚' pin.
