single-ended component, high-quality adapters are available
from your Ayre dealer.
Turn the tape outputs off unless they are currently being used.
This will completely disconnect the auxiliary components from
the KX-R (including the ground connection), eliminating the
possibility of undesired ground loops.
Unlike the main outputs, the tape outputs will not convert the
signal from a single-ended source to a true balanced signal.
Instead, the “hot” signal will be present on pin 2 of the XLR
and pin1 and 3 will be grounded. This allows a connected
balanced component to internally perform the single-ended to
balanced conversion without the need for adapters.
AyreLink Ports
The AyreLink communication system provides a convenient
way to control your audio system. There are two AyreLink ports
on the rear panel of the KX-R preamplifier. Each port has four
contacts and contains both an input and an output. Both ports
function identically and may be used interchangeably.
AyreLink connections are made with commonly available
two-line telephone line cords using modular (RJ-11)
connectors. (These are the cords that connect the telephone set
to the wall in many countries.) They are readily available in
different lengths and various colors at most electronics stores.
Be sure to use two-line telephone cords to make
AyreLink connections. These can be identified by
the four gold contacts on each connector.
Single-line cords with only two gold contacts will
not function in this application.
