Menu Features The Stellar Strata Amplifier features a menu display system that is accessible using the small
selector button and the large silver knob. It’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the different
functions in the Stellar Strata Amplifier’s menu. To access the menu, simply press and hold the
menu button to the left of the display. A gear icon will appear in the upper right corner showing
that you are in the Settings menu.
Exiting the Menus
Executing a long press of the menu button (holding for more than two seconds) will exit the
menus and return the unit to the Home screen. The menus will also timeout after seven seconds.
Note that settings are typically saved in real time as the changes are made.
Balance
The Balance feature allows you to adjust the center location of the stereo image. Turning the knob
to the left will reduce the gain of the right channel, thus making the image to come more from
the left channel, and vice-versa. The balance steps are each 1/4dB and the range is 48 steps each
way for a maximum shift of 12dB.
When the balance is set to anything other than the center position, there will be an icon on the
Home screen to indicate this state.
Phase
The phase feature allows you to invert the signal from the digital inputs. (It does not affect the
analog sources) Turning the knob will change the absolute polarity of the signal from “Norm”
(Normal) to “Inv” (Inverted). This can be useful when listening to certain source material which
may have inverted absolute polarity. NOTE: Some listeners are more sensitive to absolute polarity
than others.
