Please note that each input is
arranged as a stereo pair, right
and then left. Later, when you
come to switch Prima on, each
pair of inputs will be shown as
‘LINE X’ on the display. LINE 1
begins with the pair of XLRs,
LINE 2 is the RCA pair next to
these and so on.
It should be carefully noted that
the two XLR connectors next to
the mains IEC input, as well as
the two RCA plugs directly next
to them, are outputs. You must
not connect any inputs here.
