CONNECTION OF A RECORDING DEVICE
If you want, you can use the RCA sockets "REC OUT" (12) on the back of the appliance to connect an ana-
logue stereo recording device (e.g. CD recorder, cassette recorder etc.) or another appliance that is intended
for receiving the unchanged, fixed stereo output level (line level) from the signal source selected on the ampli-
fier at any given time. The output level is independent from the volume setting but reacts to the "MUTE" (9)(18)
command.

Connect this signal output to the signal input ("LINE IN", "TAPE IN" or "REC IN") on the recording appli-
ance using RCA cables. Please note that some recording equipment can have a slightly detrimental effect
on the audio signal quality. Some recording devices have rather low input impedance, which can slight-
ly alter the input signal voltage. For maximal music enjoyment we recommend that you connect to the
"REC" terminal only for as long as the recording is actually being made.
CONNECTION OF TWO ADDITIONAL
You only need the "PRE OUT" sockets (13) if you want to use a separate stereo amplifier or two mono
amplifiers to supply two additional loudspeakers. This makes sense if you intend to use two more loud-
speakers for stereo music playback, for example in a separate zone (another room of your home). These
loudspeakers are then connected to the speaker outputs of the additional amplifier(s). The amplifier out-
put connections "PRE OUT" (13) must be connected with the input connectors of the main amplifier, in
most cases labelled "INPUT", "POWER AMP IN" or "MAIN INPUT".

Instead of each stereo main amplifier shown here you can alternatively use two mono main amplifiers.
The output signal is independent of the setting of the loudspeaker switches (1).
