Installation
CD, Aux1, Aux2, Tuner
High level inputs for connecting different input sources. CD and Aux1
inputs are optionally available as Cinch or XLR inputs. You may select
the desired connection method for both inputs using the Cinch/XLR
change-over switch.
Phono
The TEP 3800 is not equipped with a phono input. In order to con-
nect a record player, you will need an additional phono preamplifier
(e.g. the Thorens TEP 302) that will be joined between the record
player and any optional high level input.
Pre-out
Output for connecting the power amplifier(s). The TEP 3800 is
equipped with both a Cinch and a XLR output. Both outputs are
available simultaneously, irrespective of the position of the Cinch/XLR
change-over switch on the rear panel, which is only used for switch-
ing between inputs.
If the power amplifier is equipped with a XLR input, you should se-
lect XLR, as this way the signal is transmitted completely symmetri-
cally. But if the power amplifier is with a Cinch input only, you should
also use the Cinch output at the TEP 3800 (do not use a XLR/Cinch
adapter!).
