Analog inputs include a moving magnet phono stage, balanced XLR, and three RCA inputs. The amplifier offers user-selectable A-B speaker outputs with 5-way binding posts, RCA pre-output, and dual subwoofer outputs for flexible system integration. Protection circuits guard against DC offset, overcurrent, short circuit, and temperature issues. Custom integration features include RS232 and Ethernet IP control, two trigger outputs, remote IR input, and automated digital signal sense power control.
