These pictures show the distortion spectra of the RKV. The main distortion component is K2, which
results in a pleasent sound characteristic, if audible at all at these low levels.
Of special interest with respect to headphone
protection is the suppression of all amplifier
activity at the warming up phase of the amplifier
and at power-down. During these phases charging
currents and large voltage variations may cause
damage to your headphone. To prevent such
damages a „BLOOB“ Eliminator has been added
that shortens the outputs of the amplifier and
thereby protects the phone.
NOTE: The output will become active after
approximately 1 minute after power ON. Please
keep your volume settings low during this period.
At power OFF the outputs are shortened for 10
seconds only. Internal discharges are by then
completed.
