2.3.1. Stereo Inputs 1 (& 2)
The input’s are a stereo pair consisting of two XLR 3 pin sockets electronically
balanced with an impedance of 20k bridging. They can be wired unbalanced to
accept an output from domestic equipment. They have the following connections:
Pin 1: Screen
Pin 2: Phase
Pin 3: Non-phase
2.3.2. Mono Output 1 (& 2)
The XLR 3 pin mono output connectors are electronically balanced with an output
impedance of <50. They can be wired unbalanced by grounding the non-phase
signal, enabling you to feed both balanced and unbalanced equipment. The output has
the following connections:
Pin 1: Screen
Pin 2: Phase
Pin 3: Non-phase
2.3.3. Output Gain
Output gain adjustment using a pre-set potentiometer for the converters allows a
normalised mono output from domestic stereo equipment. The potentiometers are
accessible through the rear panel and provide a gain range of 8dB loss to 18dB gain.
