Analog Audio Input Connections (Continued)…
RCA line level Input Jacks (inputs 1-5)
Source inputs 1–5 all have the same input sensitivity and input impedance and they are
compatible with any typical analog line level source.
Note: Input 5 is shared with the XLR balanced input, therefore the RCA and
XLR jacks for input 5 should not be connected at the same time.
XLR Balanced Input (input 5)
Input 5 uses balanced XLR type jacks. Use this input to connect an analog source which has
balanced outputs. A balanced line provides superior hum and noise cancellation, especially
for long cable runs.
Note: Input 5 is shared with the XLR balanced input, therefore the RCA and
XLR jacks for input 5 should not be connected at the same time.
Front Panel Aux Input
For your convenience there is an input jack on the front panel for a portable MP3 player (or
smart phone). Connect the included cable with 3.5mm stereo plugs between the portable
player or smart phone’s headphone jack and the P 5’s Aux input jack. The Aux input has an
additional gain stage that boosts the input signal by 12dB so that the volume level remains
consistent when you select your other source components. For the best result set your
portable player’s volume to at least 75% of its maximum level.
Note: If you connect a component other than a portable MP3 player to the Aux Input jack,
the volume level will probably be too high and possibly distorted.
