Output Level and Output Connection
Connect your preamplifier or power amplifier to the output connectors of the MEDEA+. Use either
the symmetrical (balanced) lines (XLR) or the asymmetrical (unbalanced) lines (RCA). Or both, if
you need to feed two amplifiers. Symmetrical is preferred, provided your preamplifier supports
symmetrical connection.
The output level is set via the rotary switch on the backpanel. The position of that switch does not
indicate the output level. The switch merely acts as a rotary encoder, i.e. rotating clockwise
increases the level and vice versa. Adjust that switch to the proper output level which matches
your amplifier. If your amplifier has a volume control, adjust the MEDEA+ output such that you get
a normal listening level with the amplifier’s volume control set to about midway between minimum
and maximum volume.
Note, it is normal when after setting the rotary volume switch the MEDEA+ output mutes again for
a short time.
