making solder joints to connectors. Where possible it is
recommended to fit crimped brass sleeves to the conductors
and then solder the sleeve to the connector. If direct solder
connections have to be made, use a high-temperature solder-
pot to tin the tinsel conductors before making the solder joint
to the connector, but be careful that the nylon thread does not
melt. Direct solder connections can be made to all other cables
with free ends (for cable connection refer to “Wiring Diagram”
pages 14-15). On request, the necessary plugs can be mounted
at the factory.
Operation
The DT 150 and DT 190 are of a professional standard. It
is important that the external equipment they will be connec
ted
to are of good quality and of the correct impedance and power
ratings to get the best performance from them. Please refer to
the „Technical Specifications“ for detailed information.
The headphone is fully adjustable and should be positioned for
the best fit over the ears. This will give maximum long-term
comfort and will minimise sound leakage or spill.
Convention states that with the DT 190 the boom is placed over
the left ear and the earphones of the DT 190 are identified: L
and R (left and right). The microphone can be used from the
right ear, but if true L and R status should be maintained, or
split feeds are in operation, it may be necessary to make a
custom lead with the headphone connections reversed. The
L&R nomenclature plates of the DT 190 can also be swapped to
reflect these changes.
