@ Calvinj, yes!,interconnects straight from ayon player to amp,, caution!, You have toggel switches on the back of the unit, as a matter of fact, you are suppose to be useing your unit at all times on low gain setting!,2.5volts, this gives you less clipping, if eany at all for your output of the signal., first, diconnect your interconnects period!, depending if you are useing your player with rca or xlr, flip the toggle for use with rca or an xlr, then flip the toggel to direct to amp, flip another toggel to 0, not 180!, on your invertness toggle switch, plug the player up, connect the player with i/cs into the amp, caution, leave amp off!, turn on the ayon, turn volume all the way down!, turn power amp on, mash play on the unit, you will hear a ping sound when you do this!, Its normal!, its your caps engageing!, ajust desired volume to your likeing!, wala!, remember, your ayon will sound bad, very bad, untill it breaks-in!,cheers!
