Connecting the system

Power supply
Audio sources
Please connect the power jack (1) at the rear with your wall outlet (Please refer to page 11). Use the provided power cable or another one allowed for your home country specifications.
NOTE:
The power specifications (2) on the rear must meet to your home country specifications.
The mains-button (3) at rear must be switched off.
PRE G2 is a very sensitive system. Please ensure that all used connec­tor cables are in absolutely best condition.
For connecting or removing audio sources, PRE G2 has to be switched off (stand-by state) or should be muted.
Inputs
Outputs
PRE G2 has one balanced and five unbalanced high level inputs (4). Due to the dual mono construction, left and right inputs are separated at the rear. Please connect left and right inputs to the corresponding outputs of the designated high-level sources, like CD-player, D/A­converter,…
PRE G2 has two balanced as well as one line and one inverted unbal­anced outputs (5) for connecting power-amplifiers.
Please connect left and right channel to the corresponding inputs of your power-amplifier. If bi-amping is desired, please use the two bal­anced or the line and the inverted outputs. In the second case, you have to change the loudspeaker polarity of the one amplifier, that is connected to the inverted PRE G2-outputs (change plus to minus and minus to plus). If you are not sure, your dealer will help you.

Recording systems
To prevent any negative influence on the signal, PRE G2 has no regular tape monitor loop or a rec out selector.
For recording please connect the inputs of your recording system, like DAT or tape-deck with the monitor outputs (6) of PRE G2. When the recorder is connected to the monitor outputs, for playing back you must use inputs No. 6 of the PRE G2.
When input No. 6 is selected and active, the monitor outputs are always switched off. This is necessary to prevent destructive oscillation of PRE G2 and recorder. Therefore Input No. 6 can not be used for a signal source, which should be recorded.
When inputs No. 1 to 5 are selected, the monitor outputs are always on. You are free to use these inputs for playback, when the recorder is not connected to the monitor outputs or the recorder inputs are connected elsewhere.
Audionet-link
In combination with other Audionet products the PRE G2 can switch on and off the whole system. Please connect the Audionet link (7) on the rear with a Toslink optical fibre cable to the Audionet link of other Audionet products.
