INSTALLATION & USE 3

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

To provide for adequate ventilation you should allow at least six inches of unobstructed

space above and a couple of inches on each side of the ampliﬁer. Because of its large

power supply, a local magnetic ﬁeld may be created and picked up by CD players,

turntables and similar equipment. For this reason you should provide at least a foot of

space between the CSib and these components.

A. INPUT SELECTOR

Signal inputs for Disc, Video, Aux and Aux2.

B. MONITOR

Signal inputs and outputs for a tape deck or other recording device.

C. PREAMPLIFIER OUTPUTS

Signal outputs for an additional outboard ampliﬁer.

D. SUBWOOFER OUTPUTS

Variable outputs for a powered subwoofer which track the master volume. Future

upgrades will provide for these 2 outputs to be used independently for Subwoofer

and Center Channel control

E. AMPLIFIER OUTPUTS

Ampliﬁed outputs to connect to speakers. To ensure identical speaker phasing

connect both speakers with the same polarity (positive to positive, negative to

negative).

F. POWER SWITCH

Main power switch. This power switch is intended only for complete shutdown while

connecting and disconnecting cables. The rocker switch must be in the “ON” position

for the CSib to operate. Rather than switching off the ampliﬁer entirely when it is not in

use, the bias pushbutton on the front panel should be used to toggle the ampliﬁers

bias off when it is in standby.

G. AC LINE INPUT AND FUSE HOLDER

110 or 220 volt power input, fused as speciﬁed on the rear panel. To replace a

blown fuse, insert a small screwdriver into the slot next to the fuse drawer,

indicated by a fuse icon, and twist to release the drawer. Replacement fuses must

match the original fuse as speciﬁed on the rear panel.
