[. . . ] Preamplifier P-3000R Instruction Manual En Introduction WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. WARNING RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN AVIS RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. Important Safety Instructions 1. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. [. . . ] To prevent interference, keep audio cables away from power cords and speaker cables. The preamplifier's optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it's removed. To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing. Right! Wrong! About Balanced Input (AES/EBU Jack) Plugging the AES/EBU cable Match the pins and insert the terminal until you hear a "click. " Make sure that the terminal is locked by lightly pulling the connection cable. Unplugging the AES/EBU cable Pull out the connection cable while holding down the lever. 1 Push 2 Push En 15 Connecting the Power Cord Preamplifier P-3000R AC INLET Supplied power cord To an AC wall outlet (Plug type varies from country to country. ) 1 2 3 4 Make sure that the main power of the preamplifier is turned off. Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet. Tip · To reduce noise, do not tie the signal cable and power cable together. Wire them so that they are away from each other. Note · Never disconnect the power cord from the preamplifier while the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet first, and then the preamplifier. · Turning on the preamplifier may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the preamplifier into a different branch circuit. · Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the preamplifier. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use with the preamplifier and should not be used with any other equipment.

Tip · If your turntable (MM) has a phono built-in preamp, you can connect to other analog inputs such as CD IN or LINE 1 IN. · If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you'll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. · If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.

Important: · When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers' tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals. [. . . ] · Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with speaker or power cables may degrade the sound quality. So don't do it. Power Can't turn on the Preamplifier. · Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet ( 16). · Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it in again. The volume adjustment of LINE 2 does not work · Lower the volume of the connected AV receiver, and release "THROUGH" of "L2 OUT" of the preamplifier ( 35). The sound quality is not good. · Make sure all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way ( 15). · The sound quality can be affected by strong magnetic fields, such as that from a TV. [. . . ]
