LINE
Each channel has two stereo inputs. CH1-4 provide line and RIAA inputs. CH5
and 6 provide two line inputs.
L and R inputs
RCA phono sockets. The PHONO input provides gain
and RIAA equalisation for turntable cartridges. Note that CH1-4 have internal
option jumpers to disable RIAA if you want to use the inputs for additional line
sources. The LINE inputs have a maximum gain of +10dB to accept signals as
low as -10dBu. Note that there are internal option jumpers to reduce this gain
to +6 or 0dB if preferred. Connect the ground wires of the turntables to the
chassis ground terminals provided.
Insert
A pair of RCA phono sockets for each side of the stereo signal lets
you insert external processing such as an effects unit, equaliser or other
channel signal processing device. This is done by breaking the signal path
after the hi-pass filter and before the rotary fader. The insert operates at 0dBu.
With nothing inserted, the jumper plugs must be plugged in as shown so that
the send signals are passed on to the return inputs. These plugs are provided
with the console. To insert external equipment, first unplug the jumpers. Keep
them in a safe place to use again in the future if needed. Use RCA phono
cables to connect the insert send (SND) to the equipment input, and to
connect the equipment output back to the insert return (RTN). Make sure the
equipment is set to operate around 0dBu and has 0dB (unity) gain from its
input to output.
Important !
Make sure the jumper plugs are pressed fully in.
A note about cables
To ensure the fine standard of sonic performance
for which the XONE:V6 has been designed, use only the highest grade
professional cables. Avoid the use of domestic grade cables.
