and the front panel switch may be used to manually
control the unit.
Some equipment instead utilizes pulses as a trigger
signal. The V-5x can also accommodate these units.
To change trigger modes, turn the rear panel switch
“Off” for about 30 seconds to discharge the internal
voltages. Then press and hold the front panel switch
while turning the rear panel switch “On”. The status
LED will rapidly flash red (about 10 Hz) to indicate
that the pulse-sensitive mode has been selected.
Repeating this procedure will revert the unit back
to the level-sensitive mode, as indicated by the
status LED slowly flashing red (about 1 Hz).
In the pulse-sensitive mode, a positive-going pulse
edge will toggle the amplifier between the
“Standby” and “Operate” states, duplicating the
action of the front-panel switch. In this mode the
front panel switch is always operative. However,
operating the unit with the front panel switch may
put the unit out of “synch” with the control device.
If this should occur, simply press the front panel
switch to restore “synch”.
Break-In
100 to 500 hours of music played through the
system will ensure full break-in.
Due to the manufacturing processes used for the
wires and capacitors, a break-in period is necessary
for the amplifier to reach its full sonic potential.
