Instructions For Use. Page 6A1001
The tape machine's Tape/Line inputs
go to the A1001's 'Tape Record' output.
To record, simply select the required
source with the source selector buttons on
the front panel. The selected source will
now be sent to the 'Tape Record' outputs
for recording by the attached tape machine.
You will also be able to hear the se-
lected source through the loudspeakers.
Note - you can adjust the listening level
with the volume control without affecting
the recording level.
TAPE RECORDING - OFF TAPE
MONITORING
In conjunction with a 3-head cassette
deck, off-tape monitoring allows the user
to compare the recorded to original sound
whilst a recording is made. First select the
required source in the normal way and start
recording, now the Tape/Source select but-
ton on the left-hand side of the front panel
can be used to switch between Source (the
source signal) and Tape (the recorded sig-
nal) allowing direct comparison. Note that
the LED indicator lights when 'Tape' (the
recorded signal) is selected. On some 3-
head cassette decks there is an additional
'tape/source' switch on the cassette ma-
chine itself which will need to be in the
'tape' position for the above to work - if
you are in any doubt consult your tape
machine's manual.
PREAMP / POWER AMP LINKS
The A1001's preamp and power amp
stages are linked by means of gold plated
bars fitted between the 'Preamp Output' and
'Power amp Input' sockets on the rear
panel. By removing these links the preamp
and power amp stages may be used sepa-
rately. Alternatively a signal processor
such as a surround-sound unit can then be
connected between the preamp and power
amp stages.
PREAMP OUTPUT
The A1001 has an additional active
preamp output situated on the back panel.
This provides extra flexibility for use in
multi-room or surround-sound systems etc.
REMOTE CONTROL & MUTE
The A1001 is supplied with a
remote control handset that can be used
to select any input and increase or de-
crease the volume by means of the
motorised volume control. Additionally
the remote handset has a 'Mute' button
which when activated cuts off all outputs
from the unit. In the 'mute' active state
the red LED position indicator in the
volume knob will turn off.
WARNING - heat
Because the A1001 is strongly
biased into Class A operation it gives off
heat through the slots in the lid.
Never put anything on top of
your A1001.
Always ensure that the unit has
adequate ventilation.
