Description
Switch on and off
POWER (9)
The preamplifier is switched on and off using this button at the front panel.
It has no standby option. When switched off the device is internally separa-
ted from the AC power. The LED associated to the selected input channel
(7) will be illuminated if the device is switched on and not muted. As a pre-
caution, after switching on, the volume setting (5)(23) of the preamplifier
should be reduced.

At the front panel: If you turn the dial “INPUT”, you select one of the devi-
ces connected to the inputs on the back of the SV-237 (14) for playback.
Using the remote control: A short touch on the button for the desired input
channel (e.g. “S1”) changes to the playback of the audio source connec-
ted there.
The LED associated to the selected input channel will be illuminated at the
front of the appliance. Before switching over the input channel, the volume
(5)(23) should be turned down as a precaution!
Change the volume
VOLUME (5)
VOLUME
p

q
(23)
At the front panel: Turn the knob “VOLUME” clockwise to turn up the volu-
me and counter-clockwise to turn it down.
Using the remote control: Press and hold the button “VOLUME
p
” to raise
its value. Use “VOLUME
q
” to lower the volume level.
The volume setting controls the speakers and the signal level at the “PRE OUT”
(13) but does never influence the signal at the output “REC OUT” (12).
Mute the speakers and
the preamplifier outputs
MUTE (20)
The MUTE function can only be activated or deactivated with the remote
control. It switches off the loudspeakers, the preamplifier output “PRE OUT”
(13) and the recording output “REC OUT” (12). When the amplifier is
muted, the LED in the volume knob will be blinking and the LED of the
selected input is switched off. Pressing the MUTE button again restores the
volume to its original setting.
Change the treble
proportions
of the sound
TREBLE (1)
With the “TREBLE” control dial on the front of the device you affect the propor-
tion of higher frequencies in the sound. Turning it in clockwise direction increa-
ses the treble intensity and moving it in anticlockwise direction reduces it. In the
middle setting the treble proportions of the input signals remain unchanged.
The adjustment of the treble control only has an effect if the button “TONE”
(6) has been pressed. The treble setting influences the signal of the loudspea-
kers and at the “PRE OUT” (13). The signal of the output “REC OUT” (12) is
independent of this.
Change the bass
proportions
of the sound
BASS (2)
With the “BASS” control dial on the front of the device you affect the pro-
portion of lower frequencies in the sound. Turning it in clockwise direction
increases the bass intensity and moving it in anticlockwise direction reduces
it. In the middle setting the bass proportions of the input signals remain
unchanged. The adjustment of the bass control only has an effect if the but-
ton “TONE” (6) has been pressed. The bass setting influences the signal of
the loudspeakers and at the “PRE OUT” (13). The signal of the output
“REC OUT” (12) is independent of this.
