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
