Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the ADVANTAGE S-1
Disc-player.
Your S-1 is a state-of-the-art unit, and has been
assembled by highly skilled ADVANTAGE craftsmen
to provide you with many years of listening pleasure.
Our unit’s esteem arises from the way we handle
music-signals. ADVANTAGE develops products for
people who wish absolutely natural
and enjoyable music reproduction.
“BURN-IN”
Due to the extremely short signal paths designed
and built into this piece of equipment, a significant
"burn-in" period is required before the unit will reach
its maximum sonic potential.
We recommend the unit be left on (or in standby
mode) at all times, especially during the first 5-6
weeks of operation, in order to speed the "burn-in"
process.
For best results, the S-1 should be left on or in the
standby mode at all times. The unit should not be
switched off via the master ON/OFF switch unless
the unit will not be being used for a significant
period of time (during vacations, etc.).
Design
Reduction is the principle for the shaping of all
ADVANTAGE components. The unobtrusive design
harmonizes with almost every environment and does
not compete with your personal sphere. The form
refers to the tonal ability of the product line, whose
composure and strength manifests a well-balanced
equilibrium.
Balanced signal transmission
Balanced signal transmission means that two signal
lines are used which carry the same signal with
opposite phase. On the receiving side, the signals
are mixed. Since any noise interference that has
arisen during transmission will be present in both
lines with identical phase, such noise is cancelled
out, leaving only the pure original signal. Balanced
connection therefore keeps the signal transfer free
from any kind of interference.
