 1  SETTING UP THE MIMESIS 37S (Ctd.) 

 
 

1.4   LINE VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT 
 

Warning!

 If the line voltage provided is not appropriate as supplied, please consult your 

dealer. 
 
ATTENTION: At the 220V position, the Goldmund Mimesis 37S preamplifier will function 
properly for main line voltages between 200V and 240V. At the 110V position, the main line 
must deliver between 105 and 125V. If your main supply operates out of these tolerances, 
please consult your Goldmund dealer. 
 
This fuse is located on the power cord receptacle and can be accessed by raising the cover 
using a small screwdriver when the power cord has been removed (ensuring power is 
disconnected before handling). Use a 2.5A slow-blow fuse. 
 

Warning! 

Always ensure that the fuse cover is fitted. Fuses are for fire prevention and do 

not protect against risk of electric shock. 

 
1.5   CONNECTIONS 

 
 

Warning!

 Always remember that a plug with bared connectors is dangerous if in contact 

with a live socket.  This appliance must be earthed. 
 
Connect the non-rewireable power cord supplied to the back of the power supply and plug 
it into the nearest wall plug. Use only a 3 lugs grounded plug, for safety and noise reasons.  
Replacement mains leads can be obtained from your Goldmund retailer. 
 
To get the best sound of the preamplifier, avoid any multiple plugs or extension cords.
