OPERATION MANUAL 088 PREAMP
List of Functions
Through factory settings a lot of functions are disabled to operate the
088 as a simple preamp. With the menus you are comfortably able to
activate the numerous options the 088 offers. In daily use these functions
are hidden. If wanted, factory settings can be reestablished.
The most important facts of the factory settings are:
•
The output MAIN OUT is the primary output of the preamp to connect to a power
amp or active loudspeakers. This output has an adjustable volume.
•
The output TAPE OUT is preset as a recording output to be connected to the
input of a recording unit e.g. of an analogue tape deck. This output will deliver
the maximum volume to the output of the selected input.
CAUTION: Never connect a power amp or active loudspeakers to this
output. Serious damage to your ears and equipments may occur.
•
The SURROUND input is supposed to be connected to the front-speakers
output of a volume adjustable surround decoder. The incoming signals on this
input will be put through to the MAIN output with maximum volume bypassing
the volume control of the 088.
CAUTION: Never connect a unit to this input without a volume-control.
Serious damage to your ears and equipments may occur.
