Quick operation guide
Here is a quick guide for those who want to listen to music or view their favorite movies as soon as possible. Connections and operations are explained briefly here for the purpose of just getting you started. For those of you who want to operate the DTA-9.4 right away, follow the guide below. However, this instruction manual contains a great deal of other information that you should know for the proper operation of the DTA-9.4 and for a more pleasurable experience with the DTA-9.4. Be sure to read the rest of this manual as well after reading this quick guide. The procedures given below assume that the other system components are already connected. (For example, that the source components are already connected to the control amplifier.) 1. Lower the volume at the control amplifier. Lower the volume of the control amplifier to the minimum so that when the DTA-9.4 is turned on, you do not hear loud unwanted sounds. 2. Connect the speakers to the DTA-9.4. Connect the speakers to the DTA-9.4 using the proper speaker cables. Be sure to match the channels and the positive (+) and negative (�) polarities between the speakers and the DTA-9.4. If the connections are mistaken, the correct orientation will not be obtained. 3. Select balanced input (XLR) or unbalanced input (RCA) with the INPUT SELECT switch. The DTA-9.4 possesses a balanced input (XLR) and unbalanced input (RCA) for each channel and the switch for the two is located between the two input terminals. Select the proper input type depending on the functionality of the connected cables and control amplifier. Note: Do not change the INPUT SELECT switch setting when the DTA9.4 is turned on. 4. Connect the control amplifier to the DTA-9.4. After selecting the correct input type in step 3 above, connect the output from the control amplifier to the corresponding input terminal on the DTA-9.4. Note: Do not connect anything to the other input jack. 5. Connect the supplied power cord to the DTA-9.4 and to the wall power outlet. Be sure to properly plug the power cord all the way in. 6. Press the Power switch. When pressing this switch, the Standby indicator flashes red, and then the On indicator lights blue. When you connect other device to the 12V TRIGGER IN terminal using the supplied cable, the power on or off status of the DTA-9.4 synchronizes to the action of turning on or off the connected device. While the Standby indicator lights red, the DTA-9.4 is in standby state waiting for 12V trigger signal. 7. Slowly increase the control amplifier volume. Note: After the DTA-9.4 is turned on, it takes approximately 10 seconds before the output sounds. During this time, do not turn up the volume. Now all that remains is to control the control amplifier and the other connected system components and enjoy your music or movies.
