6. AUX IN: To hear audio from another device, such as a CD player, MP3 player, or
computer, connect said device’s audio output to this stereo input and switch the front
source knob to Aux. Switching to the Aux position does not turn on the connected
device. This stereo input accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini connector. The left and
right stereo signal is summed to mono. Note you may need to adjust the volume
level differently for an auxiliary device than the level used for radio listening.
7. REC OUT: You can record from the Model One radio by connecting a cassette
deck’s audio input (or other recording device) to this fixed level stereo output. You
can also use the Model One radio as a high performance analog tuner by connecting
it to the audio input of a preamplifier or integrated amplifier. The primary speaker
will not be muted when using this output. This jack accepts a 1/8" stereo male
mini connector.
8. 117V: Connect the included power cord to this input. When unplugging the power
cord from the wall outlet, always grab it by the plug. We recommend using a
powerstrip with surge protection. When disconnecting the power cord, always
grasp it firmly at the connector. Never pull on the cord itself. Do not bundle the
power cord together with the external FM antenna or any audio cables, as this can
inject noise in the audio path.
RECEPTION
The internal FM and AM antennas will provide good reception. An optional outdoor
antenna will provide the best possible reception. Another alternative is to use the
supplied indoor external FM antenna or an optional FM dipole antenna with adapter.
Locating the indoor antenna near a window or outside wall will provide better reception
than more interior locations. Connecting your cable television 75ohm coaxial cable to
the external FM connection may also provide clear local r
eception, although you must
usually request activation of this service through your cable company.
For AM, rotate the radio for best reception. An optional exter
nal AM wireless or wired
antenna may provide improved AM reception.
Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household
appliances, electric blankets, computers, CD players, and other electronic devices can
also adversely affect r
eception or inject noise. If you experience this, move the Model
One radio further from the offending device or plug it into an electrical outlet not shared
by another device. Metal surfaces may also hinder AM reception.
PLACEMENT
Place the unit on a flat, stable sur
face. Do not block the bottom bass por
t. The Model One
radio is not video shielded and should be kept at least 5" away from a computer monitor
or television. The Model One radio can be positioned ver
tically as well as horizontally
.
Placement in a bookcase, cabinet, or close to walls or cor
ners may inflate the bass.
