VINCENT SP-332 Manuel D'utilisation page 26

This main amplifier is equipped with a stereo audio input "INPUT" (7) on which the unit awaits the pream-
plified signal of two audio channels (for example "R" and "L" or "FRONT R" and "FRONT L"). This is the
audio information that the SP-332 provides for one or two pairs of loudspeakers.
Attention:
No source with a standard line level signal ("LINE OUT") must be connected to this input. It is only
intended for preamplified signals (e.g. "PRE OUT").
This audio input is equipped with two pairs of connectors with which the preamplifier can be connected as
desired by means of either the RCA or XLR connectors. If your preamplifier offers both options, XLR is prefe-
rable. Only one of the two types of connectors may be used for playback at any given time. The setting of
the switch "XLR/RCA" (10) determines which connector is currently used as the input. If the SP-332 is to be
supplied with both channels of a stereo preamplifier, connect the input sockets on the rear panel with pream-
plifier output sockets that are usually labelled "PRE OUT R" and "PRE OUT L".
Use either an RCA connection
SP-332
and/or an XLR connection.

Both "INPUT" inputs (RCA and XLR) can be connected to preamplifiers at the same time and in this way it is
possible to connect two preamplifiers simultaneously and toggle between the desired "INPUT" modes. Make
sure the volume of the respective preamplifier is not set too high before switching over. It is allowed to switch
between the inputs even while music is being played back.
If the SP-332 is used in a multi-channel system, then the connection sockets of the desired channels in the con-
nection field of the decoder preamplifier usually named "AUDIO OUTPUT" are to be connected to the input
of this main amplifier.
