If you are like us, the first thing you will want to do is to play your favourite
piece of music through your new SM6. The following instructions are written to
enable you to achieve this as quickly as possible. These are not comprehensive
instructions, but are designed to enable you to play music now!
Note: Please take the time to read the SM6 manual thoroughly as it
incorporates many features, which will enhance its operation.
Placement
The SM6 is a reference preamplifier and best results will be achieved when
placed on a solid surface with adequate ventilation. DO NOT place on a
carpeted floor or cover the preamplifier!
Turn off associated components
This minimises the potential to damage any other components when connecting
your SM6 into the system.
Connect SM6 to power amplifier
Connect the balanced (XLR) or unbalanced (RCA) outputs of your SM6 to the
appropriate inputs at the rear of your power amplifier.
Note: Try to keep all interconnect cables as far from loudspeaker cables as
possible and well away from all AC mains leads.
Connect source component to SM6
Connect the relevant output of your source component to either the balanced
(XLR) or unbalanced (RCA) inputs of your SM6.
Note: Be sure to set the balanced CD input switch to the appropriate position,
ON if using the balanced (XLR) inputs and OFF if using the unbalanced
(RCA) inputs.
Switch on source component
Turn on the source component and make sure you have some program material
ready to play.
Switch on SM6
After checking the supply voltage compatibility with the voltage rating on the
SM6 rear panel, insert the power cord-set supplied into the rear of the unit and
into the wall. Switch on the socket at the wall and power up the SM6 using the
switch on the rear panel.
Switch on power amplifier
Turn on your power amplifier.
