●
There are high-voltage dangerous sections inside the unit. Do not remove
the top cover or the bottom plate, and avoid using the unit in humid or
dusty places.
●
Since the driver unit generates heat, do not cover the venting holes on the
top, side and bottom plates. Put it in an airy place if possible, and when
installing it in a rack etc., keep 5cm or more opening above the upper and
side surface of the unit. Do not use the unit with side panel down.
●
Since the degree of adhesion of foot is very high, be careful when moving
the unit.
●
Take care when "LEVEL CONTROL" is in "EXTERNAL" position, because
in this position the volume of this unit is bypassed and the volume is not
controlled.
●
Since large volume may come out, do not switch "LEVEL CONTROL" to
"EXTERNAL" when wearing your earspeaker.
●
When the option card is not equipped, do not remove the cover of the op-
tional slot. Using the unit without the slot cover may cause failure of the
unit.
●
Noise such as hum may come out when SOURCE is switched to LINE4
with no option card equipped. This is normal and not a failure.
●
The SRM-T8000 is an exclusive driver unit (power amplifier) with 4-input
selector developed in order to ideally drive STAX electrostatic earspeakers.
●
The unit incorporates a high-quality double-axis 4-gang volume controller
along with XLR connectors that can connect to all kinds of analog line-level
output terminals.
●
The hybrid amplifier configuration with strictly selected low-noise 6922 dual
triode tube for the first stage and high-current emitter-follower at output
stage brings out the maximum performance of earspeakers. Its natural un-
colored sound has been realized by eliminating the coupling capacitor that
affects sound quality.
●
The balanced amplifier configuration with low-noise dual triode tube elimi-
nated transformer or inverting amplifier after the XLR balanced input termi-
nal.
●
Non-magnetic chassis construction is employed, and only the carefully se-
lected electronic components free from aged deterioration are used taking
both their sonic quality and performance into consideration.
●
The SRM-T8000 is equipped with “direct mode” function, enabling it to con-
nect to preamplifier output terminal or to use your favorite attenuator. Also,
two RCA inputs and XLR balanced input can bypass the incorporated vol-
ume controller ( Line 4 input does not have this function).
●
Optional extension slot (LINE4) is provided for future use. Refer to the in-
struction manual of this optional card.
●
The foot rubber of the SRM-T8000 features fire-resistant ultra-hard high-
grip type and vibration-proof properties. So the unit hardly slides when
placed on a table etc. Please lift it up when you move it.
