The pin assignments of these XLR-type female input connectors are:
PUSH
21
3
Pin 1: Signal ground
Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting)
Pin 3: Signal – (inverting)
Connector ground lug: chassis ground
These pin assignments are consistent with the standards adopted by the
Audio Engineering Society. Refer to the operating manuals of your bal-
anced-output line-level sources to verify that the pin assignments of their
output connectors correspond to the AVP. If not, wire the cables so that the
appropriate output pin connects to the equivalent input pin.
Connect the right-channel and left-channel balanced outputs of your source
components to the corresponding balanced inputs on the AVP.
Note: If you do not have balanced sources and need another single-
ended input, it is possible to fabricate a cable to connect line-
level sources with single-ended output to these balanced inputs:
1
2
3
Male RCA
(connect to source)
Male XLR
(connect to AVP)
22-gauge
bus wire
2 SINGLE-ENDED ANALOG INPUTS 2-8
These inputs accept right-channel and left-channel audio signals from
source equipment with single-ended (RCA) outputs. Single-ended audio in-
puts are provided for a total of seven components. Note that the video por-
tion of the signal from any video source (VCR, laserdisc, TV) would be con-
nected on the right side of the rear panel, in the Video Input section. (See
below.)
Connect the right-channel and left-channel single-ended outputs of your
various source components to the corresponding inputs on the AVP.
3 AES/EBU DIGITAL INPUT 1
Digital Input 1 accepts digital audio in the professional 110Ω AES/EBU digital
interface standard (via a cable equipped with XLR-type connectors) from a
digital satellite receiver, compact disc, laserdisc, DVD or other digital source
component. Connect the AES/EBU digital output of your source component
to the AES/EBU input of the AVP using a high quality 110Ω AES/EBU cable such
as Madrigal MDC-1.
