Mixed Balanced and Single-Ended Systems
Any mix of single-ended and balanced components can be connected to the VK-5i by
following the above instructions.
Operating the VK-5i
Turning the VK-5i On:
When you turn the VK-5i On, it will automatically go through a gentle power-on sequence.
This sequence takes 50 seconds, during which time the display will be flashing, indicating the
status of the unit.
1. The number on the display during this time indicates the volume setting. This will be
equal to the last volume setting before the unit was turned OFF. This setting can be
changed during this time by using the volume knob or Volume Up/Volume Down buttons
on your remote control transmitter. All other remote control functions except the
MUTE are disabled during this time.
2. Normally the VK-5i will be not muted (Mute LED on the display is OFF) and will
begin playing at the end of the 50 second delay. If so desired, the unit can be put in the
MUTE mode during this delay interval either by depressing the front panel MUTE switch
or by using the MUTE button on the VK-R1 remote control transmitter.
Turning the VK-5i Off:
The unit can be turned OFF at any time (even while playing) without first activating the Mute
switch. It will automatically mute.
Gain Controls:
Separate left and right gain controls replace the traditional balance control and provide up to
4 dB attenuation for each channel. Turning them counterclockwise will reduce the gain of
the corresponding channel. The preferred position is up fully clockwise (pointer at 12
o'clock).
