OPERATION
Once all the connections are completed and checked, ensure that the volume control
is at the minimum setting (rotated all the way left).
Ensure that all source components connected to the M2 Phono Balanced Pre
Amplifier are switched ON. Source components should always be the FIRST
components to be switched on and the LAST components to be switched off.
Ensure that all power amplifiers connected to the M2 Phono Balanced Pre
Amplifier are switched OFF. Any power amplifiers in use should be the LAST
components to be switched on, and the FIRST components to be switched off.
The above procedure minimizes the possibility of loud noises produced by
components at switch on being passed to the loudspeakers and possibly causing
damage.
Turn on the M2 Phono Balanced Pre Amplifier by using the rocker switch located on
the rear panel, above the mains inlet IEC socket.
The M2 Phono Balanced Pre Amplifier requires approximately 45 seconds to initialize
before it is ready for operation.
