Linn EXOTIK PRE-AMPLIFIER Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
There are differences in the method of performing loudspeaker calibration on a standard
EXOTIK and an EXOTIK+DA:
Standard EXOTIK
You will need a test disc that contains a tone signal for each loudspeaker in your system.
Your specialist Linn retailer may be able to supply you with a suitable disc.
To perform speaker calibration:
Add a Linn UNIDISK player to the EXOTIK by following the setup instructions on
page 16.
Exit setup and change source to ‘UNIDISK’.
Re-enter setup and return to the SPEAKER CALIBRATION sub-menu.
Play the tracks on the test disc for speaker calibration while selecting the
appropriate loudspeakers from the EXOTIK’s menu.
If the tone signal coming from a particular loudspeaker is louder or quieter
than from the other loudspeakers, use the
/
keys on the handset to
trim the volume as required.
EXOTIK+DA
To perform speaker calibration:
Select
CCAALLIIBBRRAATTIIOONN LLEEVVEELL

Notes:
If you are not using a UNIDISK player and wish to use the input(s) assigned to a UNIDISK
player, enter the UNIDISK SOURCE menu and set ANALOG SOURCE and DIGITAL
SOURCE* to
NNOONNEE
(see page 14).
The ANALOG GROUP uses the ANALOG 1, 2 and 3 inputs, therefore if a source is
assigned to ANALOG GROUP you cannot also assign a source to ANALOG 1, 2 or 3.
Conversely, if a source is assigned to ANALOG 1, 2 or 3, you cannot assign a source to
ANALOG GROUP.
