Unpacking the Preamplifier:
Immediately upon receipt of the preamplifier, inspect the carton for possible damage during
shipment. If the carton is visibly damaged, a claim must be filed with the carrier as soon as
possible.
Unpack the unit carefully, and please do remember to save all packaging materials for
future shipment. The carton and packaging have been designed to offer the safest possible
protection when transporting your preamplifier.
The content of the carton is as follows:
1 pcs Electrocompaniet Preampliwire EC4.6
1 pcs ECT 1 remote control handset*
1 pcs AC power cord
1 Owners Manual

Connecting the EC 4.6
Connecting to mains
Check that the mains voltage printed on the rear panel of the preamplifier corresponds with
the line voltage in the territory were you intend to use your preamplifier.
How to avoid damages
A good operating practice is to turn off all equipment before any connections or
disconnection’s are made. Do not under any circumstances connect or disconnect
equipment when power is turned on. If you insist on connecting or disconnecting while
power is turned on, you should be aware that the design of the RCA plug generates a large
transient when inserting the plug. This could damage both the speakers and the power
amplifier.
The rear panel
The rear panel of the Preampliwire EC 4.6 contains all input and output connectors. The
printed rear panel clearly indicates the function of each connector.
Single RCA input operation
The single end RCA inputs will work with any line level source. Simply connect the RCA
plugs from the source to the RCA socket you intend to use for that source. Switch the input
selector on the frontpanel to the position corresponding to the input you have chosen.
Balanced XLR input operation
The balanced mode can only be used if the source has a balanced output. In order to use
the balanced XLR input, connect the XLR plugs from the source to the XLR socket. Switch
the input selector on the frontpanel of EC 4.6 to CD balanced mode.
