    3 Signal connections The N º 29 incorporates RCA-type and XLR-type connectors for audio signal input. The Madrigal-designed RCA-type connectors used for single-ended audio interconnection are a great improvement over ordinary RCA- type connectors. The gold-plated XLR-type connectors employed are of European design, and are made to professional app ...

    4 Inverting operation should be used if a phase reversal is required. In this mode of operation, the output signal of the amplifier will be 180 ° out of phase with the input signal. This may be required if one component in the system inverts the signal and absolute phase at the loudspeaker is desired. For inverting operation, the main output cable ...

    5 If your preamplifier is equipped with a balanced main output, it's best to wire the N º 29 for balanced operation, particularly if long cable lengths are required between the preamplifier and the N º 29. (See Figure 3 for the pin assignments of the N º 29's XLR-type inputs.) Connect the XLR-type male line-mount connector to the pream ...

    6 Speaker connections NEVER connect the N º 29's output terminals to any device other than a loudspeaker. NEVER short-circuit the amplifier output terminals. NEVER connect the left-channel output terminals to the right-channel output terminals. The N º 29 is equipped with gold-plated, high-current, five-way binding posts for output terminati ...

    8 Power connection After making your loudspeaker connections, apply power to your preamplifier and allow it to stabilize. (Mark Levinson preamplifiers, for example, require about one minute to stabilize.) Connect the AC power cord (included in the accessory pack) to the AC connector on the rear panel of the N º 29, then to the AC mains outlet. Con ...

    9 Bridged operation When greater power output is desired, the N º 29 may be bridged for monophonic operation into load impedances of at least 2 Ω . Note: Make sure the loudspeaker is rated to handle high power levels. For example, a bridged N º 29 driving an 8 Ω loudspeaker is capable of delivering 200W RMS. For the best bridged performance, ...

    12 Car e an d m ain t e n an c e To remove dust from the cabinet of the N º 29, use a feather duster. To remove dirt and fingerprints, use isopropyl alcohol applied to a soft cloth. Poor connections cause sonic degradation. We recommend, therefore, that you clean all speaker connection with denatured alcohol at least once a year. Consult your Mark ...

    13 Specifications The correlation between published specifications and sonic quality is unreliable. A list of numbers reveals virtually nothing. All technical measurements must be subject to qualitative as well as quantitative interpretation. Measurements of the N º 29 yield excellent results by any standards. However, only those specifications th ...
