Important Security Information Air circulation: Chassis openings offer ventilation and serve to protect the machine from overheating. Never cover or otherwise close off these openings. never place the machine on a soft surface (carpet, sofa, etc.). Make sure to provide for a mounting space of 4-5 cm/2 inches to the sides of the unit when mounting the unit in racks or cabinets.
Hook Up Power Connection Be very careful to check that the rear chassis power selection switch is set to the correct local line voltage position before using the unit (230 V position: 220-240 V/50 Hz, 115 V position: 110-120 V/60 Hz)! When in doubt about a source, contact your dealer or a professional electrician.
The basis for such high-end developments is our proved 120 volts ref- erence technology. Core elements are the handmade SPL SUPRA op- amps running on 120 volts – it corresponds to approximately twice that of most modern analog audio semiconductor technologies.
– and in the pro- ductive power of electronics, voltage level functions similarly. For some years, now, SPL has addressed this issue in all of its master- ing product series through its own specifically developed 120 volt tech- nology.
Rear Panel/Connections Sockets & Switches Voltage The rear panel voltage selector switch serves to let the user switch to the local line voltage standard. IMPORTANT ADVICE: Before you use the Auditor, make sure that this switch setting reflects the correct local power line voltage (115 V...
Rear Panel/Connections XLR Connections Switch off the unit before you begin the process of making the first or any subsequent connections (rear panel On/Off switch). Neglecting this can damage either or both your ears and your headphones! Connect the monitoring signal to the left and right channel XLR input sockets.
Front Panel/Connection Headphone Connection You can use all dynamic headphones from 20-600 ohms (connection impedance). Connect your headphones to the standard 1/4" (TRS) stereo jack plug on the front panel. Make sure that the plug is firmly seated for a solid connection. Pin wiring TRS jack: Tip=left channel, ring=right channel, sleeve=ground.
Control Elements Usually already a short contemplative moment should be sufficient to get a general idea of the Auditor’s user interface and it’s control ele- ments. Once more the advantages of a consequently purist design ap- proach are becoming obvious – writing and reading the actual opera- tional instructions just takes two beats.
Protect Your Hearing Always reduce volume before you put on headphones or before you re- move or plug in the headphone. This excludes louder clicks and pops reaching the ear. In addition, this can avoid unpleasant surprise that follows when a headphone’s lower impedance suddenly reproduces a much higher –...
