Connecting Zeus To Your System - Rogue Audio ZEUS Owner's Manual

CONNECTING ZEUS TO YOUR SYSTEM

Connecting Zeus to the Loudspeakers:
The rear panel has binding posts for both 4 and 8 ohm loudspeakers. The 4 ohm
taps are those located closest to the center of the amps rear panel. The 8 ohm taps
are located nearest the sides of the rear panel.
In general, if your speakers are rated at less than 6 ohms, use the 4 ohm taps and
use the 8 ohm taps if they are 6 ohms or greater.
Connecting Zeus to the preamplifier:
There are three types of input connections on the rear panel of Zeus:
1) Fully balanced XLR type input.
2) RCA input
3) Balance RCA input (labeled "low Z")
For lowest noise levels, we recommend using either the balanced or "low Z'
inputs. If you have a preamp with a high output impedance you may choose to use
the standard RCA inputs to achieve proper bandwidth.
Note that if you have a variable output CD player you can drive the Zeus with it
directly.
