Grounding Your Record Player or Tape Deck

Many turntables, changers, and tape decks must be grounded
to reduce hum to unobjectionable levels. A copper colored screw
will be found on the top rear of your amplifier. A few turns with
a screwdriver will loosen it. Connect any grounding wires to this
screw, and then tighten. Carefully read all the instructions pro-
vided with your cartridge, record player, or tape deck relating to
hum reduction. lf unusual problems present themselves write to the
address given at the hack of this manual.

CONNECTING TO THE HIGH LEVEL INPUTS
Stereo Tuners (or monophonic tuners with
multiplex adaptors)

Whether you use an integrated stereo tuner or a monophonic

tuner with a mulltipéex adaptor,

you will have two ea s to connect

LEFT to the amplifier. One lead will carry
A the left channel information and
WNEI this should be connected to the left
' channel Tuner input. The one car-
@ RIGHT rying the right channel informa-

tion should be connected to the
right Tuner input.

If the tuner has a level control it should be adjusted so that the
overall loudness does not vary when switching between records and
tuner. If your tuner does not have a level control, but does have a
choice of outputs marked high or low, use the outputs most closely
matching the over-all loudness when playing: records.

Monophonic Tuners (AM or FM)

Some early Scott FM tuners (like the 310D, 314, LT-lO, 311D)
have pairs of outputs on the back. Connect the one marked Channel A
output to the left channel Tuner input of the amplifier. Connect Chan-
nel B to the right input. While you are not feeding a stereo signal into
the amplifier, you will be able to leave your amplifier in the stereo
mode at all times and still get monophonic sound from both speakers.

If your tuner has only a single set of outputs (perhaps one is
marked audio or amplifier output and the other is called tape),
connect a single lead from the audio output to the left channel Tuner
input of the amplifier. In order to hear monophonic sound from both
loudspeaker systems, turn the Selector switch on your amplifier to
L. Input.

Extra Input
(222, 299, LK-48, LK-72 series) - An extra stereo input is pro-

vided for any other high level source you may wish to connect to
your amplifier. You can connect a second tape recorder, ceramic
microphone or cartridge, or sound

from your TV set. If this extra

6 LEFT source is a stereophonic device with

two leads, connect the left channel

A lead to the left channel Extra input

WM and the other to the right channel

V Extra input. Set the Input selector

to Extra. If it is a monophonic de-

© RIGHT vice with only one lead, connect it

to the left channel Extra input. To

listen to this latter signal over both
speakers you should turn the Selector switch to L. Input position and
the Input selector to the Extra position.
