Audio Signal Connections Audio connections for the PA 2000 are straightforward: connect the output of the source unit, which may be the multiroom outputs of an AV receiver or "whole-house" audio system or the rear surround outputs of a processor or a receiver to the audio Input Jacks ¡. In some multiroom systems, you may wish to have the same signal feed multiple amplifiers. In that type of installation, the input feed to the PA 2000 may be daisy-chained to an additional amplifier by connecting the audio Output Jacks ™ on the PA 2000 to the input jacks on a second PA 2000 or another amplifier. When making connections with the RCA-type plugs on interconnect cables, make certain to gently but firmly insert them into the jacks on the back of the PA 2000. Loose connections can cause intermittent sound and may damage your speakers. The barrel assembly of some high-quality RCA plugs may be very tight, and it is important to ensure a proper connection between the interconnection cable and the input jack. AC Power Connection The final step in the installation of the PA 2000 is to connect the power cord. First, connect the female end of the cord into the AC Power Cord Receptacle ª on the rear panel. Once the cord as been firmly connected to the PA 2000, insert the plug end into an AC power outlet. SAFETY NOTES: • Due to the current draw of the PA 2000, DO NOT connect the power cord to the accessory outlet on audio/video components. • Should the power cord become lost or damaged, be certain to replace it with a replacement that meets or exceed the original specifications. Use of power cords with insufficient capacity, such as those used with computers or office equipment, may create a safety hazard. 10 AUDIO SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
