Umbilicals
Two dedicated cables are supplied for connection of the M8 Line
Signature main unit to the power supply. Each cable is colour coded
for left and right connection.
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE CORRECT POWER SUPPLY OUTPUT
IS CONNECTED TO THE CORRECT CORRESPONDING INPUT ON
THE MAIN UNIT.
Make sure you have correctly identified the corresponding power
outputs / inputs before any connections are made.
The cables are fitted with Military specification circular connectors, and
can only be installed in one direction; the female connectors attach to
the power supply ‘power out’ sockets, the male connectors attach to
the M8 Line Signature main unit ‘power supply input’ sockets.
The connectors are a ‘push and twist’ bayonet design, and once the
connector and socket have been aligned, twist the external ring on the
connector to secure it to the socket.
If you are in any way uncertain regarding these connections, please
consult your official Audio Note (UK) agent.
Ground Post Each chassis is fitted with a separate Earth connection / ground post.
The post located on the main preamplifier unit is for connection to
source components that also use a separate ground terminal. The
ground posts located on the power supply can be used in situations
where the following amplifiers require a separate ground connection to
maintain quiet, hum free operation. Please consult your official Audio
Note (UK) agent for further information on how best to use these in
your system.
