Krell recommends using balanced interconnect cables. Balanced
interconnect cables not only can minimize sonic loss but are also
immune to induced noise, especially with installations using long
cables. Balanced connections have 6 dB more gain than single-
ended connections. When level matching is critical, keep this gain
value in mind.
Follow these steps to connect the S-150m to your system.
1. Make sure all power sources and components are off before
connecting inputs and outputs.

components. Separate AC wires from audio cables to
prevent hum or other unwanted noises from being introduced
into the system.

output terminals (7).

tive connection and the black terminal for the negative connec-
tion.

priate input (4,5) on the S-150m.
