ALTERNATE

METHOD

Ill

(Using

FOUR

-CHANNEL

DECODERS)

As

previously

stated,

the

BOSE

Active

Equalizer

should

be

connected

before

the

final

stage

of

amplifica•

tion

of

the

amplifier

channels

powering

the

901

speakers.

Additionally,

the

Equalizer

should

be

connected

at

a

point

in

the

signal

path

following

the

four'channel

decoder

to

prevent

any

possible

overloading

of

the

decoding

equipment.

Because

of

the

many

different

decoders

available,

we

suggest

carefully

reading

the

owner's

instruction

manuals

of

all

of

the

associated

equipment

regarding

system

connection.

How

you

connect

the

decoder

will

depend

upon

your

own

needs

for

control

of

the

Equalizer

and/or

your

associated

equipment.

•

Since

the

Active

Equalizer

has

been

connected

to

what

are

normally

the

tape

recorder

terminals

of

your

integrated

amplifier,

preamplifier,

or

receiver,

extra

terminals

are

provided

on

the

Equalizer

for

the

connection

of

a

tape

recorder.

Follow

the

next

five

steps

carefully:

(Refer

to

Fig.

6.1

a.

Turn

all

power

off.

b.

Connect

the

RIGHT

channel

TAPE

IN

terminal

on

the

Equalizer

to

the

RIGHT

or

"B"

channel

OUTPUT

terminal

on

the

tape

recorder.

c.

Similarly,

connect

the

LEFT

channel

TAPE

IN

terminal

on

the

Equalizer

to

the

LEFT

or

"A"

channel

OUTPUT

terminal

of

the

tape

recorder.

d.

Connect

the

RIGHT

channel

TAPE

OUT

terminal

on

the

Equalizer

to

the

RIGHT

or

"B"

channel

INPUT

(or

LINE

IN)

terminal

of

the

recorder.

e.

Similarly,

connect

the

LEFT

channel

TAPE

OUT

terminal

on

the

Equalizer

to

the

LEFT

or

"A"

channel

INPUT

(or

LINE

IN)

terminal

on

the

recorder.

Installation

of

the

tape

recorder

is

now

complete.

To

play

the

tape

recorder,

simply

place

the

TAPE

switch

on

the

901

Active

Equalizer

in

the

MONITOR

position

(down).

CONTROL

AMPLIFIERS

HAVING

TWO

TAPE

MONITOR

CIRCUITS

Many

modern

preamplifiers,

integrated

amplifiers,

and

receivers

have

two

tape

monitor

functions

providing

the

same

monitoring

features

for

two

tape

recorders

instead

of

one.

However,

most

of

these

controls

are

constructed

to

prevent

both

monitoring

switches

from

being

turned

on

or

"activated"

at

the

same

time.

Since

the

BOSE

Active

Equalizer

must

be

in

the

circuit

while

the

901

speakers

are

being

used.

connecting

the

Equalizer

in

either

TAPE

1

or

TAPE

2

will

require

connecting

your

tape

recorder

to

the

BOSE

Equalizer

tape

monitor

circuit,

not

the

unused

TAPE

monitor

position

found

on

your

control

amplifier.
