BIAS
5) Five LEDs will now illuminate: The power LED and the 4 BIAS LEDs in the centre of the display,
one for each power tube. If the amplifier is still cold, the LEDs will initially illuminate "yellow".
Please wait five to ten minutes:
Please don't turn the BIAS regulators until the Soft-Start-LED is extinguished.
(
Because the tubes are still cold you would adjust the wrong BIAS)
After an additional 5 to 10 minutes, the BIAS control LEDs will change from yellow to green.
This indicates the correct bias and the unit is ready. If you notice any irregularity in the display
please refer to chapter 7.3.
3.6. Connecting other components to the V 70 SE
1)
Be sure to switch off the V 70 SE again!
2) Connect the other components in your system to the appropriate sockets on the rear of the V
70 SE. (See chapter 5 "Rear panel connections". See also chapter 3.7. "Connection options:
overview")
3)
Check that the switch positions on the front and rear of the amplifier are in their recommended
settings.
4) Switch on the V 70 SE using the on/off switch and wait until the Soft-Start LED extinguishes.
Now you can play music.
