MAKING CONNECTIONS TO THE AMPLIFIER
Speaker cables
Install the speaker cables first. We recommend the use of high-quality cables terminated with
spade or ring lugs that will fit the Progression's binding posts. We advise against the use of pin
connectors, banana plugs or bare-wire connections. Note that the positive (+) binding post has a
red ring and the negative (-) binding post has a black ring. Double check to confirm that you are
connecting the cable's conductors to the appropriate binding posts—red to positive, black to
negative. If your cables are marked to show desired signal flow, orient the cable to conform to
the cable manufacturer's instructions.
To install speaker cables tipped with spade lugs or rings, carefully loosen each speaker binding
post. Turn counter-clockwise to loosen. If using spade lugs, insert each spade lug so that its two
tines straddle the binding post, then tighten the binding post nut. If using rings, remove the binding
post nut entirely, place the ring on the binding post, then replace the nut and tighten it securely.
A firm connection, tight enough that the spade lug or ring cannot move, is all that is needed.
Overtightening could damage the binding posts. Do not use a conventional wrench to tighten the
binding posts.
Interconnect cables
We recommend the use of a high-quality balanced XLR audio interconnect cable with the
Progression amplifier. If your preamp does not offer XLR output, use a high-quality RCA-to-XLR
adapter. Connect the XLR cable to the input by pushing the cable onto the jack. To release the XLR
cable, push on the small tab on the end of the jack then grasp the cable by the plug and gently pull it
out. Never grasp interconnect cables by the cable itself—you could damage the cable.
AC cord
The Progression amplifier is supplied with a high-quality AC cord tipped with a 20-amp IEC
connector at the amplifier end and a three-conductor AC plug at the other end. You may use
a different power cord with the Progression amplifier if you wish, as long as it is tipped with a
20-amp IEC connector and a three-conductor AC plug. After the speaker and interconnect
cables are connected, push the IEC connector on the power cord into the IEC jack on the
Progression amplifier.
12-V trigger on/off input and output
The input allows you to turn the Progression amplifier on or to standby from other components.
The output sends 12 VDC (12 V trigger) power on/off signals to other Dan D'Agostino Master
Audio Systems components or other devices that incorporate a 12 V trigger input. Mono 3.5 mm
connectors are used in the following configuration: Tip = +12 V, Sleeve = GND.
Note: When the Progression amplifier is in operational mode, the 12 V trigger provides
12 volts of DC output. When the amplifier is in standby mode or off, the DC output is 0 volts.
A maximum of 500 mA is available from the 12 V trigger output. Consult the owner's manual
of the components used in the system to take full advantage of the remote capabilities of the
Progression amplifier.
