User manual KLIPSCH 24K

[. . . ] Please read thIs manual carefully. We have written It In a very clnclse form so that you can Immedlatly set up and useyourpre-amplifier correctlv. In fact, you can read each section and follow the directions as you set up. Upon completion of set up you will know how to operate the 24K. Phono Secfioo pre-amplifier NOT {s plugged Intoan A. C. [. . . ] Each switch, from 1 to 8 will present the following load: 1 2 3 4 10 ohms 25 ohms 47 ohms 5 6 7 8 249 ohms 475 ohms 825 ohms 100ohms 1000ohms Check with the moving coil manufacturer as to what load is recommended. You will notice that the volume will decrease as you lower the load. 10 ohms will have less gain than 47, 000 ohms. By combining switches you can create different loads. To know what load you are creating, multiply the two values, then add the two values, then divide the added value Into the multiplied value to determine the resistance. Example: switch 4 = 100ohms Multiply switch6=475 ohms 47, 500 Add 575 = 82. 6 ohms Therefore when switches 4 and 6 are depressed the load is 83 ohms. Power Supply 1)Connecting the Supply Do not olu~a the DOwer suoolv Into the A. outlet until It Is olu~a~ged Into the ore-amo. The power supply plugs Into the pre-amp on the for right of the rear panel via the XLR connector labeled power. The male connector of the power supply Is designed to be connected with the push pin lock In the center top position. For safety purposes It will only make connection when Inserted properly. 2) Positioning the Supply The power supply may be placed on the floor In any convenient location. If you wish to place It on a shelf, be sure It Is at least 12 Inches from the nearest component. Input Connectors Before Insertingor removing connectorsbe certain both the pre-amp and were power amp are not on. The layout and labelinp of input connectors on the rear panel designed for the utmost In ergonomic convenience. Standing at the rear of the pre-amp you can read the Intended source of each connectorlabeled directlybeneathIt. Standing at the front of the pre-amp (leaning over the top) you can read theIntendedsourceof each connectorlabeled directlyabove It. Output Connectors Connect the Input of your tape players to the tape outputs of the preamp. Connect the input of your amp to either pre-amp output connector. Two pre outs are provided to facilitate the use of 2 power amps if desired. Controls From left to right 1. Off - On - Mute Switch o. The OFF posit/on Is for left. When the pre-amp Is off, Idle current Is passed through the circuitry to maintain proper operating temperature for optimum sonic quality. b. The ON posit/on allows you to listen to the selected source. [. . . ] Therefore prior to changing source or recording we suggest you fully lower the volume control and re-adjust to desired listening level. 5. Balance Control prominenceof soundfrom the Jeftspeaker whiledecreasing I Rotating the balance control to the left will Increase the prominence of sound from the right speaker. Rotating the balance control to the right will Increase the prominence of sound from the right speaker, while decreasing prominence of sound from the left speaker. [. . . ]
