Connecting To Other Equipment - Arcam RMJ C30 Mode D'emploi

CONNECTING TO OTHER EQUIPMENT

When connecting to other pieces of equipment, please note the
following:
 The use of high quality interconnect cables to and from your
amplifier is recommended to ensure the best sound quality. Your
dealer will be able to recommend interconnect cables that are
suitable for your system.
 All the line inputs (except for the
sensitivity and may be used with equipment other than that
labelled, if needed.
The C30 provides the following connections:
TAPE/PROC RECORD OUT
to the input sockets of your cassette deck (usually labelled
the cassette deck).
8
TAPE/PROC PLAY IN – Connect these input sockets to the
output sockets of your cassette deck (usually labelled
cassette deck). If you do not have a cassette deck you can use this input
for other (line level) equipment, such as a CD player, tuner, VCR, etc.,
(but not for a turntable).
VCR/TAPE2 RECORD OUT
connected to the input sockets of VCR (usually labelled
the VCR). Alternatively, these outputs can be connected to a second
recording device (such as a second cassette deck).
bk
VCR/TAPE2 PLAY IN – Connect these input sockets to the
output sockets of your VCR/second recorder (the output sockets are
usually labelled ). Alternatively, you can use this input for other (line
PLAY
level) equipment such as a CD player, tuner, etc., (but not a turntable).
bl
DVD
– Connect this input to the stereo audio outputs of a DVD
player.
bm
AV – Connect this input to the stereo audio outputs of audio
visual equipment such as a laserdisc player, satellite or Nicam tuner.
bn
TUNER – Connect this input to the audio outputs of your radio
tuner.
bo
CD – Connect this input to the audio outputs of your CD player
or DAC (digital to analogue converter).
bp
AUX – As the C30 has the phono board fitted as standard, the
connection is a line level output carrying an equalised phono
AUX
signal. If desired, this output can be connected to a recording device.
Should you wish to remove the phono board, then the
can be used as a line input. Please see your dealer for further information
about this option, as removing the phono board yourself may invalidate the
warranty.
bq
PHONO
– Connect this input to the audio outputs of your
turntable. The phono module supplied with the C30 is compatible
with most moving magnet and moving coil cartridges. Set the blue
switch immediately below these connections to the correct setting,
as follows:
– is used for high output moving coil and all moving magnet
MM
cartridges. The blue switch is flush with the rear panel of the
C30.
– is used for low output moving coil cartridges.The blue switch
MC
is depressed inside the rear panel of the C30.

TRIG OUT and REMOTE IN
connections are intended for use in multi-room installations.
– This output provides a 12V signal whenever the unit is
TRIG OUT
switched on (i.e., not off or in standby).This signal can be used to
switch on automatically power amplifiers (or other equipment)
connected to the C30, as they will come on when the C30 is
activated.This is useful if the power amplifier is remote from the
C30, or otherwise difficult to access. This feature can be used
with both the P35 and the P1. If you are bi-amping with a power
amplifier and wish to power both units on or off simultaneously,
see page 11.
– This allows remote control signals to be received by the
REMOTE IN
C30 if the remote sensor is covered (or otherwise not 'visible' to
the remote control). An external sensor is used to receive the
signals from the remote control, which are then fed to the C30
on
(into this input) using a suitable cable. Remote control signals
acceptable to the C30 must be in modulated RC5 format, with
a voltage level of between 5V and 15V.
Note that in normal use there is no need to make any connections to
these sockets. If you would like to make use of these features, please
contact your dealer for more advice on how to make the connections
and on what type of cable to use.
