1.1  

PRELIMINARIES 

 

Please read the following instructions very carefully. This high-precision unit will provide the 
best digital signal possible to your digital-input power amplifiers or active speaker, thanks to 
its unique technology. 
 
For exacting technicians, musicians, and all high-fidelity music purists who demand the very 
best in musical reproduction, we strongly recommend the use of top quality power amplifiers 
with a digital input, since most of the digital signal performance delivered by the Mimesis 11 
Hub can be eroded by using lower quality amplifiers or D/A converters. 
 
The  connection  between  the  analog  and  digital  sources  and  the  Mimesis  11  as  well  as 
between the Mimesis 11 and the power amplifiers/speakers are critical. Ultra low reflection 
interconnect  cables  are  absolutely  mandatory  in  analog  and  precise  impedance  SPDIF 
cables in digital to keep the time integrity that the Mimesis 11 Hub  is designed to provide. In 
all  typical  cases  Goldmund  recommends  using  the  special  Goldmund  Lineal  interconnect 
and digital cables.
