CHANNEL INPUTS: 1/4" and RCA connectors. Connect the RCA jacks to
the output of a line level device such as a tuner, cassette player, or CD
player.
Note: Do not directly connect the output of a phono player as those
devices require special equalization.
Connect the unbalanced 1/4" jacks to the output of a mixer or preamplifier.
For MONO operation, plug one mono RCA connector between the two
RCA jacks. Either Channel One or Channel Two 1/4" inputs may be used
as the mono input.
INSTALLATION
Mount your RA235 into a safe and sturdy rack. Connect the outputs of
your signal source to the input(s) of the RA235, and connect the outputs
to your speakers. Observe the polarities as indicated in the Rear Panel
descriptions and the diagram below.
THIS DIAGRAM IS A CONNECTION EXAMPLE ONLY. DO NOT USE
BOTH THE RCA AND 1/4" INPUTS AT THE SAME TIME.
Plug the RA235 power cord in to a properly grounded AC power source
