SUNILDA
ultra highend phono tube amplifier____________________________
Controls and operation on the front and rear panel
The frontside of the SUNILDA has a number of controls, whose function should be elaborated
upon.
When switched ON, the amplifier is always in MUTE during the first minute - nealy one minute.
The amp is also in MUITE - function for a wile, when you handle one of its 4 little rocker
switches on the freont panel, you see the yellow LED shinning. This prevents power spikes
that may be caused by the voltage spikes what will be produced, when you handle the little
rocker switches to reach the outputs. When the safe MUTE period is over the amplifier is ready
for use and spend the signal to the OURPUT terminals.
Never change a fuse when the amplifier is connected to the mains or when you are unsure about
the proper functioning of the device. Never replace a blown fuse with a other values than printed
on the unit!
Whenever you perform any service or modification to the SUNILDA Pre-Amplifier, make sure the
device has been disconnected from the mains and leave the work to a professional only!
The design of the circuit board allows you a view upon the most important element that might be
subject to service or modification.
When you decide to replace pin-compatible tubes, always switch the SUNILDA amplifier o OFF
before doing so. And make sure all pins actually enter the sleeve of the receptor. Pins have a
tendency to wander outside their assigned realms...
The SUNILDA Concept
The SUNILDA boasts a huge amount of innovative solutions that are hard to find in tube - amplifiers
in this price range. To balance currents in the tubes and to make sure they operate at peak efficiency
within their tolerances, semiconductors are used. The SUNILDA has been designed to be a real
double mono amplifier, which means both channels have their own power supply. A design
characteristic that is no standard option with even much more costly devices. When you switch the
volume off, the SUNILDA is SILENT. Please note both the minimal background noise and the equaly
low input noise level the SUNILDA Pre - Amplifier scored in tests.
That is no mean feat. Like all AUDIOVALVE amplifiers, the SUNILDA has been designed to be a
timeless piece, a high closs powder coated 3mm thick laser cut steel with gilded connectors. That
concludes the basic technical description of the amplifier, continue reading for the really important
stuff.
IIMPORTANT: In the 4th quarterly issue 2005 of the HI-FI magazine “xxxxx“ the
SUNILDA have been tested and reviewed exhaustingly. These tests will probably
answer any questions regarding musical performance and technical specs you might have.
