CONNECTING POWER TO THE TLP 1

Connect the power cord to the back of the TLP 1 and then to an AC outlet. If excessive hum or buzz is heard
through the speakers during operation, remove the cord from the back of the TLP 1 and re-insert it after
turning the connector upside down.

AUDIO INPUTS

Audio connections are made through interconnect cables – typically white or black for the Left channel and
red for the Right channel. The audio output connectors on tape recorders, VCRs, and CD players are normally
color coded in this same manner – connect them to the appropriate inputs on the TLP 1:

AUDIO OUTPUTS

Any of the outputs shown below can be used simultaneously:

Fixed Outputs:
These provide a fixed line-level output for connection to a tape recorder’s or VCR’s audio record inputs,
and/or to an integrated amplifier or receiver that is used for another room (Zone 2) so sources connected to
the TLP 1 can be directed to that remote location. The volume control does not affect this output level.

Subwoofer:
Intended to be used with a powered subwoofer or subwoofer amplifier, each of the four jacks provides a
mono signal of the left and right channels combined. Up to two subwoofers can be connected in either of the
following configurations: Low Pass, which contains only low bass, or Full Range, which is unfiltered.

• Use Full Range if the subwoofer has a built-in crossover.

• Use Low Pass if the subwoofer’s crossover is bypassed or if there is no crossover in the subwoofer

or subwoofer amplifier.

Main:
The High Pass output reduces low bass which makes it ideal when using smaller speakers that are unable
to reproduce deeper bass or bass at full output levels. The use of a powered subwoofer is strongly
recommended with this setup. The unfiltered Full Range output is the ‘normal’ full bandwidth audio output.

• Use Full Range if using full bandwidth speakers, either with or without a subwoofer.

• Use High Pass if using smaller speakers and a subwoofer.
