Hooking up my phase linear model 2000 preamp, to my model 400 main amp.

I had these two units for years,hooked them up back in 2001,found they needed some work, had them repaired they have sat in the shipping box ever since. I did hook then up years ago but don't remember how I did it. Now I have them again, and want to get them going . And don't want to burn something up hooking them up wrong. Can someone give me some direction how to do this. Thanks DRW.

Thank you You are right, it does have the outputs and the inputs labeled,  it has been quite a while and I did not want to burn anything up. So again thank you.

I did finally find an owners manual And it even said one should put an inline fuse in the loop, to prevent that from happening. They recommend a 1, 11/2, to a 2 amp. any thoughts about this. I just don't want to put heavy of a fuse and have the current walk through it. I do appreciate the words of wisdom, I never thought that could happen. And I am running a pair of JBL LX 55 's, and a pair of infinity IL 40's. so yes I don't want anything to happen to either of them. again thank you.
