Headphone Connection
TAURUS is designed to well match all modern dynamic headphones with either 6.35mm
stereo headphone jack (TRS jack) or 4PIN balanced XLR jack. Please make sure the plug
is seated for a solid connection.
The pin wiring for 6.35mm jack is: tip=left channel, ring=right channel, sleeve=ground. Pin
wiring for 4PIN XLR jack is: pin1=left positive, pin2=left ground/negative, pin3=right posi-
tive, pin4=right ground/negative.
Don’t use mono 6.35mm plug (TS plug)!
A mono 6.35mm plug (TS plug) will create a short connection; this will
destroy the ORFEO output module in TAURUS! Double check that you
use 6.35mm stereo plugs when you connect headphones.
Burn-in period and Warm-up
As the same with the other audio components, TAURUS requests at least 100 hours mu-
sic signal burn-in to achieve its designed performance; the sonic will be in best after 500
hours music signal burn-in.
Since TAURUS is working in Class-A, it need regular warm-up before it can sound best for
enjoyment. The warm-up time depend on room temperature which should between 30 to
60 minutes.
