PRE OUT/MAIN IN terminals
Removing the jumper pins enables this unit to independently
perform the functions of a control amplifier and a power
amplifier. These terminals are for connection of a signal-
processing system such as a graphic equalizer or sound
processor.
If a sound processor or other external unit is connected
between these terminals, the
VOLUME
control of this unit can
be used for overall adjustment of the sound level.
To connect such a unit, remove the jumper pins from the
PRE
OUT/MAIN IN
terminals, connect the inputs of that unit to the
PRE OUT
terminals and its outputs to the
MAIN IN
terminals.
For details, refer to the owner’s manual included with the unit to
be connected.
