Output will occur without volume adjustment by this unit.
V
If you select inputs connected to an ordinary line-
level device, signals that are too strong could be
output to the speakers, resulting in damage to
them.
"THRU" appears on the display instead of the volume level set by
using the VOLUME knob.
For example, if you connect the pre-out connectors (for example,
FRONT L/R) of an AV amplifier to this unit's RCA 2 connectors, and
set RCA2 to THRU, you can use the speakers connected to this unit
as the front speakers of the AV amplifier. (The AV amplifier controls
volume adjustment when the input source is set to "RCA2".)
o The volume cannot be adjusted for input connectors set to
THRU, but fine adjustments can be made using Bal and Lvl
settings.
V
Always connect a device that has a volume con-
trol to the input connectors set to THRU. Use that
device to minimize the volume before switching
the input source, and then gradually raise the vol-
ume level.
