14 12 VDC Out
Sends a 12 V power on/off signal via a 12 V trigger
cable to other Krell components and to other devices
that incorporate 12 V power on/off trigger input.
When the KID is in the operational mode and a trig-
ger is enabled, the 12 VDC Out pr
ovides 12 V of DC
output. When the KID is in the stand-by mode or off,
or if a trigger is not enabled, the DC
output is 0 V
.
POWER CONNECTION
15 IEC Connector
A standar
d male IEC power connector
, for use with
the AC power cord.
Krell recommends using balanced interconnect
cables. Balanced interconnect cables not only can
minimize sonic loss but also are immune to
induced noise, especially for installations using
long cables. Balanced connections have 6 dB
more gain than single-ended connections. When
level matching is critical, keep this specification in
mind. Krell recommends using balanced inputs for
components that use the preamplifier mode.
1. Make sure all power sources and components
are off before connecting inputs and outputs.
2. Neatly arrange and organize wiring between the
KID, the Papa Dock, and all system compo-
nents. Separate AC wires from audio cables to
prevent hum or other unwanted noise from
being introduced into the system.
Connect the KID to Your System
The KID connects to a preamplifier, processor, or
amplifier as an A/V source, and is equipped with a
balanced and single-ended analog audio output, an
S-Video, and a composite video output. The Papa
Dock is a 150 W amplifier specifically designed by
Krell for use with the KID.
Maintain the correct left/right orientation: balanced
outputs use three-pin XLR connectors. Single-
ended outputs use RCA connectors.
1. Connect the balanced (12) or single-ended (11)
analog audio outputs to the corresponding
inputs on the preamplifer or processor, or to the
Papa Dock or other amplifier in your system.
2. Connect the S-Video (10) or composite video
(9) outputs to the corresponding input on the
monitor in your system.
3. Plug the AC power cord into the IEC power
connector (15) on the back panel. Then plug
the AC power cord into the wall socket.
The KID is now ready for the iPod-device connection.

AC Power Guidelines for the KID. Use only the
power cord provided with the KID. The use of the
KID with devices designed to alter or stabilize the
AC power may impair the ability of the interface
dock to perform optimally.
