BRYSTON POWERPAC 60/120/300 
Grounding and Ground LIft Switch (except PP300 and PP120): 
Input and Output Connectors:                                             
           Bryston PowerPac amplifiers come 
standard with two input connectors: one un-
balanced RCA/phono connector and a bal-
anced combination XLR - 1/4-inch jack with 
fully discrete active input circuitry.  
 
           All input connectors are gold-plated 
and should only be used only with high-
quality, gold-plated interconnect cable as a 
poorly plated connector will eventually cor-
rode through the gold flash.  
            
           Bryston offers interconnect cables 
with heavily gold plated, quality connectors 
available through any Bryston authorized      
dealer or directly from Bryston. 
           Output connectors consist of one 
pair of five-way binding post  terminals (1 
red and 1 black) that can accept either 
standard banana plugs, spade lugs, pins or 
bare wire. Since the binding posts are gold-
plated, we recommend gold plated connec-
tors also be used on the speaker cables. 
 
           All Bryston amplifiers will accept bal-
anced or single-ended (RCA) input connec-
tors. The balanced inputs use combination 
3-pin XLR (pin-1-ground), (pin-2-+) and 
1/4-inch tip-(+), ring and sleeve (ground) 
input connectors. 
 
             
A ground lift switch is located on the 
front panel of the amplifier. It is connected 
between the chassis ground (including the 
third prong on the power cord) and the signal 
ground.  
 
            This switch is normally left in the con-
nected (up) position. Occasionally a multi-
amplifier installation or an unusual grounding 
situation with another component (CD player, 
video recorder, television  etc.) will cause a  
 
ground loop between the signal ground and 
the chassis ground. This switch will reduce 
the resultant hum in many cases without  re-
sorting to a  “ cheater plug ”  by  switching to 
the separated (down) position.  
 
 
Note: this switch does not disconnect the 
chassis from the third prong on the power 
cord which must be left intact for safety 
reasons.
