1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you very much for expressing your confidence in LTO products by purchasing our HPA6 6-Channel Head­phone Amplifier. With the HPA6 you have acquired an extremely musical and flexible 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier. Featuring six stereo headphone amplifiers, The LTO HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier performs a number of necessary tasks, not all of which are headphone related.
The HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier provides Main Inputs on the rear panel and Direct In Input on the front panel to drive any or all of the 6 stereo headphone amplifiers, when using the Direct In Input, the Main Inputs signal will be interrupted automatically, the Main Outputs on the rear panel can be used to interlink any number of HPA6s for expanding. The AUX In input on each channel is used to add an additional input signal to the master signal, with the corresponding Balanced Control to determine the mix ratio between the two signals.
In parallel with the Headphone Outputs on the rear panel, the Headphone Output on the front panel is also used to output the signal of the individual channel.

4. INSTALLATION & ONNECTIONC
4.1 Mains Connection
This is a dual voltage unit. Please ensure that the LTO HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier is set to the correct supply voltage before plugging the power cord into the wall outlet, use the same fuse as marked on the fuse holder at the AC power connection socket.
Do not insert power cord into the unit until voltage has been correctly set. Do not plug the power cord into AC power until voltage has been correctly set.
The mains connection of the LTO HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier is made by using the cen losed mains cord and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements.
4.2 Audio connection
The HPA6 presents with balanced XLR connectors and 1/4" TRS phone jack and6-Channel Headphone Amplifier it can be interfaced by several ways to support a variety of applications without any signal loss.
a. Wiring Configuration
Either the 1/4" TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) phone jack or the XLR servo connector can be wired in balanced and unbalanced modes, which will be determined by the actual application status. Please wire your systems as the following examples:

4.3 Rack ountingM
The most secure mounting is on a universal rack shelf available from various rack manufactures or your music dealer. The HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier fits into one standard 19" rack unit of space. Please allow at least an additional 4" depth for the connectors on the rear panel. Be sure that there is enough air space around the unit for sufficient ventilation and please do not place the HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier on high tem­perature devices such as power amplifiers etc. to avoid overheating.
5. APPLICATION
This section introduces some typical applications of your LTO HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier. Please reserve your time to well understand the control elements ( see Chapter 3 ) and the following application examples, so as to be able to fully exploit the HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier.
5.1 Use the HPA6 as a Headphone Amplifier
This is the basic application for HPA6 6-Channel Headphone Amplifier.
While using the HPA6 as a Headphone Amplifier, please apply the program source to Main / Direct In Inputs, and connect the headphone cable to one of the appropriate outputs. Ensure the Balanced Control adjusted to the complete counter-clockwise position, and turn up the Input Gain control. The Input Gain control is used to boost or attenuate the general volume of all the headphones, while the individual Output Gain controls are used to set the desired channel volume.
Three headphones can be connected per channel each time, but, please be sure that the resulted connection impe­dance must over 100ohms, otherwise, the output amplified signal may sound a little offensive, in terms of long time fault condition usage, the headphone amplifiers will be finally damaged or distorted.
If you still need further headphone ports or more groups headphone amplifier, please interlink any number of HPA6 via the Main outputs.
In parallel with the Headphone Output on the rear panel, the Headphone Output on the front panel is also used to output the signal of the individual channel, such function proves to be very useful esp. in the rack mounting application.

5.2 Use the HPA6 as Independent Power Amplifiers
Instead of using the HPA6 as the Headphone Amplifier, in many particular circumstances, it can also be conducted as the independent power amplifiers, as for this kind of application, please turn the Balanced Control to complete clockwise.
By setting the Balanced Control to AUX position, the Main signal will then be muted, only the signals coming from Aux In Input can be routed to the headphone amplifiers circuit. So, now, you can apply up to six indepen­dent stereo program sources to the mixing console, and consequently, six different and individual monitor facilities for up to six musicians can be created.

5.3 The HPA6 in Studio Application
Generally, the Aux In Inputs are used to feed a further input signal, which can be mixed with the Main/Direct In signal via Balanced Control, so that, well understood this function, you can get the wonderwork in the studio field.
Normal practice, if you want to record a vocal track which is intended to ride on an already existing background musical tracks, take it easy, just use the Main Input to feed the musical background signals, and input the Vocal signal through Aux In.
