Connections - All connections on the Germanium are transformer balanced with pin 2 hot.
Power supply - This is designed to be used with Chandler Limited PSU-1 MKII power supply.
The power pin out is as follows:
1) chassis and audio ground
2) 48 volt
3) +28 volt
4) -28 volt
Notes on Grounding - On the back of the power supply are two black banana connectors.
These join the audio ground to earth ground with a solid wire between them. Depending on your
studio you may want this connected or disconnected. Turn up your monitors or headphones a bit
and experiment with which has a lower noise floor in your system. You may also need to join the audio
banana plug to other sections of you studio to obtain lowest noise floor. The audio banana is located
closest to the edge of the power supply case. Use something simple like a guitar cord and touch the
tip to other portions of your studio to find best results.
