q This amplifi er uses XLR connectors, which are
widely used in professional audio applications, for
the BALANCED connectors. Their features are
described below.
Due to their 3-pin construction, the music signals
can be transmitted as balanced signals, and the
effects of extraneous noise are minimal.
• Their connect/disconnect locking mechanism
minimizes any shakiness in the connector area
and performs high reliability.
w For professional audio applications, the XLR
connectors can be connected in the following two
ways.
1. European system (pin w = hot, pin e = cold)
2. U.S. system (pin w = cold, pin e = hot)
e The XLR connectors on this amplifier use the
European system in 1. above. If a pre-amplifi er
or control amplifi er with connectors using the U.S.
system is connected to this amplifi er using balanced
cables, the signal phase will be reversed.
To correct the signal phase, reverse the connections
of pins w and e of the XLR connector at one end
of the cable.
UNBALANCED CONNECTIONS
RCA audio cable
REMOTE CONTROL CONNECTIONS
RCA cable (accessory)
(This cable is required to connect the AV8003 or
other Marantz component to this amplifi er.)

Input selector switches
BALANCED:
The XLR audio cable is used for connection with the control amplifi er.
UNBALANCED:
The RCA audio cable is used for connection with the control amplifi er.
Notes:
• Select the input, whether balanced or unbalanced, before turning on the power. Failure may occur if it is
selected after the power has already been turned on.
If the amplifi er input and input selector switch settings are incorrectly matched, no sound will be output from
the amplifi er.
