accessories such as recording devices, headphone amplifiers sub-woofer speakers

Preamplifier is muted.
CONNECTING THE MAINS SUPPLY
Firstly, check that the mains supply voltage printed on the rear of this preamplifier
is similar to the mains supply voltage in your area. If in doubt, please consult your
Plinius dealer. Mains supply power connection is via the plug-in lead supplied with
your Kaitaki Preamplifier. Where possible, check the wall outlet is switched OFF, then
connect the local mains plug end of the lead to the wall outlet. Check the preamplifier
is switched OFF, and connect the IEC end of the cable to the IEC socket at the back
of the preamplifier. With the cord fully connected, switch the wall outlet ON.
Now that your Kaitaki Preamplifier is configured correctly, switch the power switch on the
rear panel to ON. The display LED will cycle in brightness for approximately ten seconds
as the internal circuitry stabilises. You can now enjoy your new Plinius Kaitaki Preamplifier.
NOTE: This unit must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing
connection. The wall outlet socket or mains switch must be accessible at all times in
case of emergency.
WARM-UP PERIOD
You will find that the Kaitaki Preamplifier will become noticeably ‘purer’ in sound after
being on for a period of time. We usually recommend waiting at least 24 hours before
expecting the best quality of sound reproduction from your preamplifier.
