Note
If a signal is input to the MAIN INPUT and to the AUX IN at the same
time, you should check the phase of their signals. The signal could be
canceled by phase errors and will therefore not be amplified as expec-
ted: Please check the correlation by choosing different modes via the
MONO L and MONO R buttons. In case of cancellations try to invert the
phase of the AUX signal and compare the results.
