System Congurations
Unbalanced Connections
If your preamplier has RCA out-
puts, it can be connected to the ampli-
er inputs as shown. The amplier will
boost the preamplier's output, up to a
level suitable for driving speakers.
This diagram also shows how the
Voltage Source outputs connect to
the input posts of your speakers. (The
Current Source can be used instead,
as shown on the next page).
The following pages show some typical connections that you might make in your installation. They show how the inputs
and outputs of the Theater Grand Amplier are connected to your preamplier and speakers.
R = Right Channel
C = Center Channel
L = Left Channel

Make sure that the posi-
tive speaker wires do not
touch the negative speaker
wires, or any chassis metal.
This will cause a short circuit and may
damage your amplier or speakers.
