The moulded IEC connector of the supplied mains lead should be
plugged into the socket
(12)
on the rear of the unit first and then plugged into the mains supply. The Mains power
switch
(10)
is on the rear panel of the DX2. This switch is normally left on. If the unit is likely to be unattended for
a long period, switch it off and unplug the mains lead from the wall. (As with all electronic components)
System DX2 must be fitted with at least one DC Power Supply.

IMPORTANT: BEFORE ANY CONNECTIONS ARE MADE, ENSURE THE UNITS ARE SWITCHED OFF AND
DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS.
DC POWER LEAD:
When the DX2 is used as a dedicated DC power supply, first attach the DC1 lead to
one of the DX2 DC Power Output Sockets
(7
or
8)
and then to the DC Power Input
Socket of the partnering Roksan product.
Note:
DC1 Lead is directional.
XPS.V OUTPUT LEAD:
There are two versions of output lead connector. You should use the 4-pin connector
version for the original Xerxes and the 5-pin connector version for the Xerxes.X.
Simply line up the connector ‘key’, insert fully and secure by tightening the locking nut
finger tight.
ARTAXERXES.X:
Connect the tone arm cable L & R RCA plugs to the L & R input
(2
&
3)
and securely
attach the ‘Ground’ lead to the ‘Ground’ terminal
(6)
of the Phono amplifier. Then
connect the L & R output
(1
&
4)
sockets of the Phono amplifier to the L & R
(Line
level)
input of your pre or integrated amplifier.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For optimum performance, it is recommended to use high quality inter-connect cables such
as ROKSAN HDC-02A High Definition Analogue Cable terminated with Roksan RCA plugs.
Remember
for best results, always use the DS1.5 DC power module to power the XPS.V or the
Artaxerxes.X.
