Connecting An Amplifier (Main Zone) - Emotiva DMC-1 User Manual

Connecting an Amplifier (MAIN ZONE)

This configuration shows the MAIN ZONE connections to a multi-channel amplifier. You may
use single ended RCA audio cables or the preferred balanced XLR audio connections. The
advantage of the XLR balanced connections is that they have a much higher rejection to any
radiated noise from AC line cord interference. Also note the connection of the 12 VDC trigger
to turn the amplifier on.

In this configuration the DMC-1 is connected to 5 channels of amplification via balanced XLR
connections. The sixth output would connect to the input of a powered subwoofer. If using
more than one subwoofer, use the pass through output on one subwoofer to route the input
signal to the additional subwoofer(s). If you choose to connect the remaining two connections
(LEFT and RIGHT SURROUND BACK) you will need a 7 channel amplifier like the one
shown here - the Emotiva MPS-1 - and you must enable the channels through the SPEAKER
SIZE menu of the DMC-1 remote control.
