GTP-830 DIGITAL PROCESSING TUNER/PREAMPLIFIER
[15] Preamp outputs:
Before making any connections, check that the
GTP-830 and the power amplifiers it will be con-
nected to are switched off. Connect the RCA-to-RCA
leads from the Front Left and Right, Center,
Surround Rear Left and Right, and
Surround Back Left and Right
Preamp Outputs to your external
amplifiers. The Subwoofer preamp
output allows for connection to a
sub-bass speaker system with its
own external or integrated power
amplifier (“active” or “powered”
subwoofers).
With volume turned down to a low
level, switch power on only after
all connections have been made.
[16] Auxiliary outputs:
The auxiliary outputs allow
a line level connection to
various devices, such as an
audio system in another
room. The output is the selected source.
[17] Monitor outputs:
Composite Video and S-Video outputs are for
connecting a TV or Video Monitor to view video
sources connected to Video 1 through Video 5.
Using a Video RCA-to-RCA lead or S-Video, connect
the ‘Video Line In’ on the TV or monitor to the
MONITOR OUT.
Note that an S-Video signal from Video input 1
through 3 will also be available as a Video
Composite signal on Monitor out, if the correspon-
ding source is selected. The composite video input
signals from Video 1 to 5 ( [18]; yellow sockets) will
also be available as S-Video signal on the Monitor
Out socket. If you use both S-Video and Video
Composite sources, you will only need to connect
the S-Video Monitor Out to the television or projector.
The video signal available on the S-Video and Video
Composite outputs is dependent on the selected
video input (Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, Video 4,
Video 5). However, when one of the audio-only
sources is selected (FM, AM, CD, Tape Monitor or
ext 5.1) the last selected video signal from one of
the video inputs will be present on these outputs.
This way you can watch a DVD player or video
while listening to the CD player.
[18] Video/Analog Audio inputs and outputs:
Apart from the audio signal, these inputs will also
accept a video signal which will be routed to the
Monitor Out sockets [17] for a television or video
projector. The Video 1, 2 and 3 inputs also have the
option of a Video Composite connection (using the
yellow RCA socket) or an S-Video connection (using
the Mini-Din connector).
The S-Video standard allows for higher quality
video signal transfer when compared to the Video
Composite standard. If your video components
have an S-Video connector use dedicated S-Video
leads to connect them to the GTP-830 in the same
way as described with the Video Composite equivalents.
A video signal fed to an S-Video input socket will be
available on both the S-Video Monitor Out and
Video Composite Monitor Out.
