This section describes all the controls and connections of your amplifier. Understanding all of the

controls and connections helps you realize its full power.

5.1 Getting to Know Your VM-1110 Amplifier

The KRAMER

VM-1110 is a full spec, state-of-the-art, 1:10 balanced audio distribution amplifier

designed for studio and other demanding applications. The

VM-1110 splits the input source into ten

identical outputs with no discernible signal degradation. The

VM-1110 has two inputs and can be

programmed by the user to function as a 1:10 Mono DA or as a 2 x 1:5 (stereo) DA. State-of-the-art

Bi-Fet amplifying circuitry and a high power discrete buffering system make the

VM-1110 an

excellent performer. All circuitry is active with no transformers thus ensuring hum-free, full

bandwidth operation. The

VM-1110 may also be used to distribute unbalanced signals, using an

appropriate adapter and grounding the negative polarity signal.

Two VM-1110 machines can be used

for 1:10 stereo operation, in conjunction with the KRAMER

VM-1010 (used for video).

Front/rear panel features of the

VM-1110 are described in Figure 1 and
