" TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) or male
XLR plugs. The amplifier will operate with either a balanced or unbalanced signal, from earth ground or floated source
equipment. To determine if your equipment is earth grounded or floated, consult the owner’s manual or test with an ohm-
meter.
The signal connections are as follows:
Proper cable wiring will be determined by the source equipment that is feeding signal to the amplifier.
EARTH GROUNDED SOURCE EQUIPMENT
Source units with a 3-pin mains power cord will typically have the audio output ground connected to the earth-grounded
chassis. This can be verified with an ohmmeter by disconnecting the mains power cord from the AC outlet and checking for
continuity between the earth ground pin and the audio output ground. This test should be done with the equipment
installed in the complete system, including cables. If the audio output ground is connected to the earth ground pin, it is
earth grounded equipment.
