You can connect up to three devices with analogue stereo high level output such as a CD player in order
to provide the audio signals of your input sources to the system. The output sockets on the source equip-
ment are usually indicated by “Line Out”, “Audio Out” or “Front Out“. You will find information about
ways to connect source equipment in their operating manuals. The audio inputs “S1”, “S2” and “S3”
represent electrically equivalent standard high level inputs with RCA connection. They have an identical
function and differ only in name.
If you want, you can use the RCA sockets “OUTPUT REC” (12) on the back of the appliance to connect
an analogue stereo recording device (e.g. CD recorder, cassette recorder etc.) or another appliance that
is intended for receiving the unchanged, fixed stereo output level (line level) from the signal source selec-
ted on the preamplifier at any given time. The output level is independent from the volume setting and the
“MUTE” command. Connect this signal output to the signal input (“LINE IN”, “TAPE IN” oder “REC IN”)
on the recording appliance using RCA cables.
To use a record player you need a so-called equaliser preamplifier (also called a phono pream-
plifier), which is installed in the signal path between the record player and one of the high-level
inputs. Some models of record player already include this preamplifier and can be connected
directly. You will find further information in this appliance’s operating manual.
The stereo sound of appliances that use output connectors other than RCA (DIN plugs, jack
plugs) can often also be used with the aid of adaptors.
It is not possible to connect a personal computer by means of a USB connection.
It is not possible to play music files in any format other than MP3.
To prevent loss of data, an attached storage device or MP3 player must not be pulled out of the
USB socket while playing the data stored on it!

RCA HIGH LEVEL OUTPUTS
CONNECTION OF A USB STORAGE MEDIUM
CONNECTION OF A RECORDING DEVICE
Please note that some recording equipment can have a slightly detrimental effect on the audio signal qua-
lity. Some recording devices have rather low input impedance, which can slightly alter the input signal
voltage. For maximal music enjoyment we recommend that you connect to the “REC” terminal only for as
long as the recording is actually being made.
You can connect a storage medium or an MP3 player that has a USB-A plug to the USB socket on the front
of the preamplifier. Storage media will be accepted if they are formatted with one of the following file
systems: FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32 and which are registered as device of the class “mass storage”. This cate-
gory includes most USB memory sticks, portable MP3 players, portable media players and harddisks with
a USB connection. SA-96 supports the standard USB1.1.
Please note that the built-in player of the SA-96 is used for playing the files located on the attached device
and any player contained in the attached device cannot be used via the USB connection.
