Setup

Connecting

The first stage in setting up your EXOTIK is to connect your sources, power amp(s) and
other peripheral devices to the EXOTIK.

1.

Ensure your EXOTIK and all components that you will be connecting to the EXOTIK
are disconnected from the mains supply.

2. Connect your source components, power amp(s) and any communication/control

devices you wish to use, referring to the back panel diagram in the

Connecting

chapter.

3. Connect the EXOTIK to the mains supply and turn the unit on using the switch on

the back panel. The front panel will display EXOTIK or EXOTIK+DA, depending on
your unit.

4. Press the key on the front panel or handset.

The main stage in setup is configuring the EXOTIK pre-amplifier to suit your
requirements. This is achieved using the setup menus. How to configure the EXOTIK is
explained in the rest of this chapter.

the loudspeakers in your system and much more. To take advantage of your EXOTIK’s
