Always use the 901

active equalizer when playing your 901 speakers. How you set the equal-
izer depends on how it is connected to your receiver.
When connected to TAPE MONITOR
Press your receiver TAPE MONITOR button to the IN or MONITOR position. This switches the
equalizer into the system. Check periodically to be sure the TAPE MONITOR is engaged. On
some receivers the button may be labeled RECORD SELECT or RECORD OUT.
To play a tape deck connected to the equalizer, press the MONITOR button on the equalizer
IN (TAPE, position 2).
Return the MONITOR button to OUT (SOURCE, position 1) to listen to components other than
the tape deck (CD player, radio, etc.).
CAUTION: Do not use the active equalizer with conventional, non-equalized speakers or head-
phones. This can produce unnatural sound, and can even damage some non-901 speakers.
Before you play any non-901 speakers, be sure the receiver TAPE MONITOR button is OFF (OUT
or NORMAL).
You can play a tape deck through conventional, non-equalized speakers, even if your receiver
has only one tape monitor connection. Follow these steps to do this:
1. Connect the tape deck outputs to the AUX input jack on your receiver.
2. Leave the inputs of the tape deck connected to the TAPE OUTPUT jacks on the 901 active
equalizer.
3. Press the receiver TAPE MONITOR to OFF (OUT or NORMAL). This allows you to record
disc and radio sources. You may also play any program source (including tape) with or
without 901 equalization.
Note: This arrangement works only with tape decks. Do not use it with any type of signal pro-
cessing device.
When connected to PRE AMP OUT/MAIN AMP IN
1. You must leave the MONITOR button on the 901 active equalizer OUT (SOURCE,
position 1) at all times.
2. Do not connect tape decks to the 901 active equalizer when it is connected to this ampli-
fier connection. Connect the tape deck to the receiver or amplifier TAPE MONITOR con-
nection or AUX inputs.
3. The power amplifier is always receiving the 901 active equalized signal. This signal can
damage conventional speakers and headphones. Therefore, do not connect conventional
speakers or headphones unless you have disconnected the 901 equalizer.
Do not connect tape decks or signal processing devices to the 901 active equalizer when it is
connected between the preamplifier and main amplifier.
