I need a view of the back to see where and what cables goes into. I have the manuals but too much information to absorb.
My brother and I used to listen to it in the 80's and it's been stored for many years. I miss him and want to bring out those good memories .

We're both quite new here, but I've been a Crown customer for decades, since 1975. I have a DL2C/PS too, fully operational; running now. Correct; they are very complex pieces of gear, but in basic connectivity not that much more difficult than a plain-Jane receiver. Audio-out goes to audio-in. I take it your post here is similar to the one under, "General Discussion". To be of greatest assistance, it would be ideal to talk, where we can cover a lot of information much more quickly. Where are you? I'm in north Georgia, USA; where are you? Before getting into connections, some other things must be addressed first. Among them, (1.) How long have the DL2 and power supply been stored, I assumed un-powered? (2.) What kind of environment were they stored in? Attic? Garage? Basement? Dusty? Clean? Were the units covered in plastic bags and boxed? How about humidity? The reason I ask is that I restore old audio gear and machinery, and before powering up things that have been unused for long periods of time, it is wise to perform a comprehensive evaluation first.
Let me know.

I am completely overwhelmed in thus endeavor but managed to learn alot already but by no means very knowledgeable ... just sayin . I am learing a new language is what i can compare it to.
Its been awhile since i posted this and since then i have most of the cables figured out. My power button was stuck and i had to take one of the other ones and replaced it. I am using one of my crown Sa2 amplifier and hooked it up yo the preamp controller and one of the B&W 801 speakers and this seems to be working. Now i just tried to hook up the other one to the other speaker but it doesnt work. I know both speakers work but i dont have it hooked up right and thats' where i am now stuck at.
