Connecting Audio Equipment
or an Amplifier
You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier
to the Digital Piano and then play through external
speakers for more powerful volume and better sound
quality.
IMPORTANT!
• The Digital Piano automatically adjusts sound output
to optimize for headphone output (when headphones
are connected) or built-in speaker output (when
headphones are not connected). This also will cause
a change in the output quality from the Digital
Piano's LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.
• Whenever connecting a device to the Digital Piano,
first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to
a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the
volume to the level you want.
• Whenever you connect any device to the Digital
Piano, be sure to read the user documentation that
comes with the device.

Connecting to Audio Equipment 1
Use commercially available cables to connect the
external audio equipment to the piano's LINE OUT
jacks as shown in Figure 1. LINE OUT R jack output is
right channel sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack
output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase
connecting cables like the ones shown in the
illustration for connection of audio equipment.
Normally in this configuration you must set the audio
equipment's input selector to the setting that specifies
the terminal (such as AUX IN) to which the piano is
connected. Use the piano's VOLUME controller to
adjust the volume level.

Use commercially available cables to connect the
amplifier to the piano's LINE OUT jacks as shown in
Figure 2. LINE OUT R jack output is right channel
sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack output is left
channel sound. Connecting to the LINE OUT
L/MONO jack only outputs a mixture of both channels.
It is up to you to purchase connecting cable like the one
shown in the illustration for connection of the
amplifier. Use the piano's VOLUME controller to
adjust the volume level.
IMPORTANT!
• When using the LINE OUT jacks, also connect
headphones to the PHONES jacks. This will switch
the LINE OUT output to appropriate sound quality.
