TCS input switching

Unread post by zebbo »

Quick question: The inputs on the TCS are switched in/out with toggle switches. This means that it's possible to have more than one "live" at the same time. Can this cause any issues?? Guess not but I don't know. With a rotary switch it's not possible, obviously.

The switches have better contacts so are better sounding than any rotary switches. As with all NVA Statement product (which is why we refuse to sell them to newbies) they needs some intelligence and understanding. It just does the same as a mixing desk but a pointless exercise.

Aye, I didn't want to try it, I just wanted to know if I need to make sure I avoid it happening.

It is harmless. Unless the two thing being put in contact with each other are electrically incompatible - highly improbable.
