1. PREFACE
Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing an
Epilog
integrated amplifier. This product is
manufactured with care under strict quality control and is a perfect example of state-
of-the-art precision technology. Even if you are familiar with hi-fi equipment, please
take a moment to study these instructions carefully and follow the instructions
contained therein. Keep this manual for future reference; it is intended as a tool to
help you make the best use of your new amplifier.
Enjoy your new integrated amplifier!
Best wishes from your
TRIGON
- team.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Epilog
is an integrated amplifier that can be individually adjusted in the pre stages
to the needs of the user by the use of modules. It can be inserted up to five modules
in the back of the amplifier. Due to the modular design it is also possible to respond
to the latest technical developments.
The choices are unbalanced and balanced input
modules, a phono module with MC / MM sensitivity, DAC module with two SPDIF
Coax inputs, one optical input and a USB input and line output modules in
symmetrical and asymmetrical design. The modules can be combined arbitrarily. The
position in the slots can be freely selected. If necessary, a plurality of identical
modules may be used. The modules offered will be expanded as new applications or
technical progress requires. In these cases, not a completely new amplifier must
immediately be purchased, but only the corresponding module.
So the
Epilog
with comparatively little investment can always be kept up to date
or be adapted to new requirements
In the class AB output stages of the so-called double mono principle each channel
gets its own transformer and its own electrolytic capacitor package. In this manner,
the mutual interference between the stereo channels is reduced to a minimum.
The bandwidth of the amplifier is very well designed to allow a time accurate
transmission of all frequencies up to the upper limit of hearing. This is made possible
by the use of symmetrical cascode amplifiers and measured pairs of bipolar power
transistors. Each channel used six couples. Therefore
Epilog
is able to drive
speakers with a minimum impedance of 2 Ohm.
Always wakes sensitive safety electronics to the welfare of speakers and amplifiers.
A dimmable turn off and on display at the front informed about the currently operating
conditions.
The operation of the device can be done either manually directly at the Epilogue or
with the IR Remote Control Director. Together with our network multimedia player
