Input Connections
If your preamplier has RCA outputs, it can easily be connected to the amplier inputs as shown.
The amplier will boost the preamplier’s output, up to a level suitable for driving speakers.
Make sure that the positive speaker wires do not touch the negative speaker wires, or any chassis
metal. This will cause a short circuit and may activate the protection circuitry. The 12 VDC trigger
connection shown can be used to turn the amplier on when the preamplier turns on. This is the
preferred method of activating the IPS-1. Alternatively, you could use the amplier’s SIGNAL switch
position. The amplier will then automatically turn on when a preamp audio signal is received.
