Parasound A 23 - Manual (Page 6)

Left and Right Unbalanced Inputs
Use these inputs if your preamplifier or surround controller doesn’t have balanced
output connectors or if you simply prefer to use unbalanced connections.
What You’ll Need:
• One standard pair of shielded interconnect cables with
RCA plugs
• A source component with RCA output jacks
Before Connecting
Leave the AC cord on the A 23 disconnected until you have made all other connections
to prevent any surprise burst of sound.
Make sure that all your cables are long enough so they are not strained or stretched
once they are connected.
Make sure the Balanced-Unbalanced switch on the A 23 is in its Unbalanced (down) position.
To Connect
Plug one end of the cable into the Unbalanced Right Channel Input jack on the A 23.
Plug the other end of this cable into the unbalanced right channel output jack on your
preamplifier (or a channel from your surround controller).
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the left channel.
