⑫ SWITCH ANTI-HUM (GROUND ON / OFF) .
Located under the amplifier
Your amplifier EX-362D has a mains socket
outlet with a ground connection. The use of
this type of connection is recommended for
electrical safety reasons (including wetlands).
However sometimes this connection "mass" is the origin of
"hum" audible from the speakers in a hi-fi system to solve
this problem, the cancellation of the ground connection is
sometimes sufficient. To do this you have, under the
amplifier, a switch to choose to connect or not the mass of
the device to the mains.
⑬ TRIGGER OUTPUT
This 3.5 mm Jack mono output is used to activate or
desactivate remotely auxiliary devices connected to the
amplifier. When the unit is turned on, the output is
switched to 12V. When the unit is turned off, the trigger
output is 0V.
⑭ AC MAIN INPUT
Once all connections to the amplifier, plug the power cable
into an outlet and turn the unit on. Your amplifier is now
ready for use.
① PHONE / HEADPHONES .
Important note:
Make sure the volume control is turned
down before connecting or disconnecting headphones.
Listening at high levels can cause permanent hearing
damage.
This taken Jack size 6.35 mm allows connection of stereo
headphones. It is advisable to use a listener with an
impedance between 32 and 600 ohm headphones. When
the headset is connected, the output to the speakers are
then cut.
When the headphone jack is used, the speaker outputs are
disabled. Similarly, the bias setting of the power stages is
reduced to a much lower than that used to power speakers
level. This reduces the consumption based on actual needs
of your listening.
② STANDBY ON (SLEEP MODE)
This button allows you to turn the device in Sleep mode to
conserve energy while not performing his primary function
or to resume the device in active mode.
Regarding the high level of heat dissipation of the device
including the absence of any musical signal (operating in
pure Class-A), we recommend that you turn the EX-362D in
mode Standby when not in use.
In any event, for security reasons the EX-362D is
programmed to automatically go into standby after 12
hours of operation (with or without the presence of musical
signal). If the EX-362D gets itself into Standby when
listening, you always have the option to return to operation
with the Stand-By button.
③ GAIN
This command allows you to lower the overall gain (-10dB)
on all of your sources. This allows you to adjust the fineness
of the volume adjustment depending on the sensitivity of
your speakers and your listening level.
