Line inputs
Being mono power amplifiers, each QUEST Silver Signature Low Gain

is fitted with one single ended / RCA input. Looking from behind the
amplifiers, they are located at the right hand side of the rear panels.
Connect the outputs from your preamplifier to these inputs.


Speakers

Each amplifier is equipped with 3 colour coded binding posts for
connection to your speakers.

Looking from the rear of the amplifiers, the 3 binding posts are located
at the right hand side of the rear panels, near to the single ended /
RCA input.


Connect the amplifiers black speaker output binding post marked as
“0” to the black / negative terminal (also marked “ – “) on the
loudspeaker.

Connect the amplifiers red speaker output binding post marked “8

Ohm” to the red / positive terminal (also marked “ + “) on the
loudspeaker. The other red output binding post is marked “4 Ohm”
and may be used with 4 Ohm speakers. If you are uncertain whether
your speaker system is specified as 4 or 8 Ohm, try the following test
once all other connections are made and the amplifier is operational.
Compare the sound quality using a familiar recording with the
speakers connected to the 8 Ohm connections and then the 4 Ohm
connections respectively. The combination that produces the best
frequency balance and maximum dynamics should be used.


Mains

Each QUEST Silver Signature Low Gain is equipped with an IEC 320

mains inlet socket for each amplifier. Use the supplied mains cables to
connect the units to the local mains supply. The mains fuse and a
spare are located in the inlet socket fuse drawer.

Special Note – Make sure that all connections are tight and clean. For

best results use good quality audio interconnects. Although it is
perfectly acceptable to use cables manufactured by other companies,
for best results and performance, we recommend our own
Audio Note
(UK) range of interconnects and loudspeaker cables. For further
information, please consult your nearest Audio Note (UK) dealer, or
alternatively please feel free to contact us directly.
