The headroom of the input circuits is also greatenough to accept the maximum output level from virtuallyany low-level signal source. Balanced signals are lesssensitive to AC hum and radio interference. The sourceimpedance should be less than 1 kohms to avoid highfrequency loss in long cables.To daisy-chain amplifiers, use the XLR-male connector provided on each channel, labeled “Link”. Theyare connected in parallel with the Neutrik® Combojack on each input.TKNKO= råÄ~ä~åÅÉÇ=áåéìíë=To connect an unbalanced input source, connect pins 1 and 3 in the cable’s XLR plug (ring and sleeve in aTRS plug). If you leave a pin disconnected, you will lose 6dB.A better method for using unbalanced sources is shown in figure 8. This is similar to the connection forbalanced lines, but pin 3 is connected to the shield at the source end of the cable. The hum and noiserejection for the cable is equivalent to that of a balanced line. To minimize hum in the audio signal, usebalanced inputs whenever possible.Figure 7: Unbalanced line connection Figure 8: Balanced line with unbalanced equipmentFor 2-channel (stereo) operation, use both channels A and B. For tandem stereo or bridged monooperation, use only one of the inputs. See “Operation Modes” (page 7) for more details.i~ÄKÖêìééÉå== = = = = = ========================NPrëÉê=j~åì~ä===Ñm=SQMM======sÉêëáçå=NKN========OMMPJNMJMO=
