Follow the instructions below to connect Your sound system correctly.
STEP 1 / HOOK-UP OF THE HEADPHONES
Check the impedance of your headphones set. Connect the 6,3 mm jack cable to the jack
socket on the front panel of the amplifier. Chose appropriate impedance on the impedance
selector knob ( no. (3) picture on page 6 ). LOW position – for 32 Ω headphones, MID – up to
150 Ω, HIGH – for 150 Ω and more. For planar magnetic headphones you should set
impedance knob on HIGH position.
STEP 2 / HOOK-UP OF THE SIGNAL SOURCES
Connect the signal source to the amplifier inputs IN. Pay attention to the proper connection
and distinction of the right (R) and the left (L) channels. For the best sound quality, we
suggest using the Fezz FAC 01 interconnect cable dedicated for Fezz Audio vacuum tube
amplifiers.
STEP 3 / HOOK-UP OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD
Make sure that the amplifier is switched off. Connect the power cord to the IEC socket on
the rear panel of the amplifier.
The amplifier is designed to operate at a rated voltage of 230V / 50Hz. Connecting the device
to a mains network with incorrect parameters can lead to damage that is not covered by
manufacturers warranty.
FIRST POWER-UP AND GETTING STARTED______________________
Make sure that all of your wiring is connected in accordance with the information as
provided above.
Set the volume control to minimum. Turn on the mains power of the Omega Lupi amplifier –
the vacuum tubes shall begin to glow. Make sure that the sound source is turned on, playing,
and then gradually increase the volume level by turning the potentiometer.
The operation of the amplifier narrows down to adjusting the volume via VOLUME
potentiometer and selecting appropriate headphones impedance on the impedance selector
knob ( no. (3) picture on page 6 ).
To connect a turntable, You will need to use an external phono MC/MM
preamplifier or turntable with a built-in preamplifier.
