Aesthetix Audio Janus Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
The correct loading will be achieved when music has the right balance of dynamics, high
frequency extension and lack of glare or brightness. Generally speaking, less loading
(higher ohms) results in more high frequencies and more dynamics but can be too bright
with some cartridges. More loading (lower ohms) can reduce brightness but if overdone
can result in reduced dynamics and a dull, lifeless quality. Consult your dealer for
loading recommendations on the cartridge(s) you are using. The selected load setting is
stored in non-volatile memory and will therefore not be lost even if the power is
disconnected.
The mute button is active while in the loading adjustment mode.
DEMAGNETIZER
Pressing the demag button will activate the cartridge demagnetizer for phono section.
The demag light will illuminate, the output will be muted and the demagnetizing signal
will be applied to the cartridge. When the demagnetizing cycle is complete, the demag
light will extinguish and normal operation will return. No buttons are active while
demagnetizing.
Cartridges should be demagnetized weekly or anytime a muddiness or lack of clarity
becomes apparent.
When not in use, the demagnetizer is fully deactivated. No power is applied to its
circuits and the output is disconnected from the cartridges by a relay.
