INPUT GAIN CONTROL
This control allows you to precisely adjust the input level of the signal arriving
at the rear-panel input connectors. At their fully counterclockwise position, the
signal is attenuated by -80 dB. At their fully clockwise position, the signal is no
attenuated. When 0dBu of signal arrives at the input and the input level controls
are set to their fully clockwise position (0dBu), the Amplifier delivers full power.

INPUT FOR DC 24V POWER SUPPLY
This connector is designed to power up amplifier when the main power is un-
available. Use only 24V power supply or batteries and take attention to polarity
during the wiring. If both, AC and DC power are connected, amplifier will use
main AC power.
