To connect an external preamp to the Grundig UMS 25, follow these steps:

1. Locate the sound output jacks of the external preamp.
2. Use a cinch (RCA) cable to connect the output jacks of the preamp to the "IN R L VIDEO (AUDIO)" jacks on the Grundig UMS 25 stereo system.
3. Ensure the right (R) and left (L) channels are correctly matched.
4. Power on both devices and select the appropriate input source on the stereo system.

This setup allows the preamp’s audio signal to be played through the UMS 25 speakers.
