Keep SRC- held down until the progress bar display is complete,
and the display shows Sources.
The display will then change to show the source assigned to line
input 1.
Note that if you turn off the power while you are naming sources
any changes you have made will be ignored, and the previous
assignment of names to inputs will be retained.

We recommend using high-quality leads such as Linn Interconnect
cables. These are directional and should be connected so that the
arrow points from the source component towards the KOLEKTOR.
Connecting a phono source
Instead of using input 1 for a line-level source, you can configure
the KOLEKTOR so that this input is suitable for the much lower
level output provided by a moving magnet phono cartridge. For
information about configuring this input see the section
Configuring the inputs
, page 19.
Connecting a tape recorder
To make recordings in conjunction with the KOLEKTOR connect
the TAPE OUT sockets to the line inputs of the tape deck. Connect
the line outputs from the tape deck to any pair of input sockets on
the KOLEKTOR (input 3 is initially configured as TAPE) for playback.
Connecting to a power amplifier
To connect the KOLEKTOR to a power amplifier connect one pair
of the line outputs from the KOLEKTOR to the line inputs of the
power amplifier. The KOLEKTOR provides three sets of outputs to
allow you to use multiple power amplifiers in conjunction with
multi-amplifier or active speakers. The KOLEKTOR is ideal for use
with any of the Linn high performance power amplifiers including
the LK85, LK140, LK240, or KLOUT.
Connecting headphones
You can connect a pair of headphones to the headphone socket on
the front panel of the KOLEKTOR, which is fed from a dedicated
internal headphone amplifier. Switch your power amplifier off to
mute your loudspeakers.
