These switches must both be rotated to the desired position to select the desired input,
Input Selector Switches
XLR Balanced, RCA Single-Ended Non-Inverting (+) or Inverting (-) for normal operation.
In the MUTE position, this control allows for BIASING CONTROL of the power tubes and
for safe cable swapping without shutting down the amplifier. When both switches are in
the M U T E position the front panel Power LED will turn R E D. Note: This position is purpose-
ly positioned at 12 o’clock so it can be easily determined when access is obscured. The
f ront panel Power LED will also turn red if this switch has selected an input which has no
connection. If any input selector switch is in MUTE and the other is not, the Power LED will
be a Red & Green colour at the same time.
