PREAMPLIFIER CONTROLS
The Mimesis 27.8 preamplifier is powered on using the switch located on the back panel. In
regular use this switch should be left ON at all times (see sound quality optimization). The
standby function of the remote control should be used to mute the signal for safe removal
of cables. When in standby mode the front panel operation locking LED will blink
intermittently.
The preamplifier is powered OFF by switching the back panel switch to the OFF position. A
safety circuit switches the unit to mute to avoid any disturbance reaching the speakers.
MUTING
To mute the preamplifier output, press the "MUTE" key. The same operation repeated
brings back the preamplifier to normal operation at the same volume as in operation at the
point the mute function was activated.
VOLUME ADJUSTMENT
The level control may be adjusted manually using the front panel knob or by using the +
and - buttons on the remote control.
SELECTOR
The selector knob selects one of seven available inputs (4 analog and 3 digital). Each step
clockwise selects the next input in sequence. Selection may also be made using the remote
control by pressing the key corresponding to the input on the remote control.
An orange locking led is lighted up when an analog input is selected or when a digital
source is connected to one of the 3 digital input
B
ALANCE ADJUSTMENTS
The balance of the preamplifier may be adjusted using
the “<< ; >>” BAL key press on the
remote controller. A point under the volume or under the input, on the display, will show the
balance right and left of the audio signal. This function is only accessible via the remote
control.
