3 Applications
.
The PPA-100/SW is a 6-channel stereo head-
phone amplifier . It can be used to amplify
audio signals with line level (e . g . of CD play-
ers, tape decks, mixers) for reproduction via
up to six headphones . Via the inputs SOLO
INPUT, a different signal can be fed to each
channel . Input signals at the MAIN INPUT
can be distributed to multiple channels .
4 Setting up the Amplifier
The amplifier can be used as a tabletop unit
or insered into a rack (482 mm /19") . For in-
stallation into a rack, 1 rack space (= 44 mm)
is necessary .
5 Connecting the Amplifier
Always switch off the amplifier before mak-
ing or changing any connections .
An audio unit can separately be connected
to a single channel (SOLO INPUT) – then it
can only be heard via the respective channel
– or to one of the inputs MAIN INPUT so that
it is audible for all channels .
Via the inputs INPUT MAIN, the level can
be reduced by 20 dB to
switch INPUT LEVEL (6); therefore, units with
a very high output level should be connected
to one of these inputs .
1) Use the inputs SOLO INPUT (13) to con-
nect up to six audio units that are to be
monitored by a single pair of headphones
each .
2) Use the inputs MAIN INPUT (5, 7, 11, 12)
to connect up to three units; it will then
be possible to monitor one of the units
via multiple headphones:
a A unit may be connected to the RCA
jacks at the front panel (7) or alterna-
tively to the RCA jacks at the rear panel
(11) . Both pairs of jacks are connected
in parallel .
b As soon as another unit is connected to
the 6 .3 mm jack at the rear panel (12),
the unit cannot be heard any more at
the RCA jacks . The amplifier switches
to the unit connected to the 6 .3 mm
jack (12) .
c A third unit may be connected to the
6 .3 mm jack at the front panel (5) .
Now all other signals at the jacks MAIN
INPUT (7, 11, 12) are switched off, and
