Hamilton Beach Stereo Amplifier P43 Fascicule
Thank you for purchasing the P43 Pre-Amp. You are now in possession of a State of
the Art product. The functions and operation of the P43 are extremely simple.
However, the following notes are provided to explain all aspects of its design and use.
the Art product. The functions and operation of the P43 are extremely simple.
However, the following notes are provided to explain all aspects of its design and use.
OVERVIEW
The function of the P43 pre-amplifier is to allow the user
to control signals from various sources (Disc, CD,
Tuner, AV and Tape) and vary the amplitude (volume) of
the selected signal to a Power Amplifier, which is
designed to supply higher level signals to loudspeakers.
Therefore, a pre-amplifier should be as flexible as pos-
sible and, in this case, the Creek P43 has a wide range
of standard functions and is designed to be configured
to meet many different requirements.

Future up-grades are possible as it uses a system of
modular construction. Please read the following instruc-

GETTING STARTED
Unpack the amplifier and keep the packing material
safe for any possible future use. Connect one of your
source components (a CD player for example) into the
sockets on the rear panel marked CD Input, using high
quality phono to phono interconnects. The P43 pre-
amplifier should be connected to a power amplifier, like
