User manual VINCENT SV-226MKII

[. . . ] Dear Customer, we thank you for the confidence you prove in purchasing our product. It will match your high demands towards sound and manufacturing quality. Though it is understandable that you want to plug and play this product instantaneously, we encourage you to read this manual carefully before installation. It will help you in handling and operating this machine in your system and obtaining the best possible performance, even if it was installed by your dealer. [. . . ] Connect this signal output to the signal input ("LINE IN", "TAPE IN" oder "REC IN") on the recording appliance using RCA cables. Please note that some recording equipment can have a slightly detrimental effect on the audio signal quality. Some recording devices have rather low input impedance, which can slightly alter the input signal voltage. For maximal music enjoyment we recommend that you connect to the "REC" terminal only for as long as the recording is actually being made. The SV-226MKII is equipped with two output connectors for the power control. Here, the switching signal generated by the SV-226MKII is available for other components of the system. Two HiFi components that are able to react to the power control signal can be connected directly to the amplifier's power control outputs (17). If more than two devices, which can be controlled, are to be connected, then it is necessary to make the power control connection between the amplifier and these further devices through the outputs of the two devices which are connected directly. For that reason, every HiFi component that accepts power control signals is also equipped with a power control output. Thus, in theory it is possible to provide an infinite number of HiFi components with the power control signal. This approach, to loop a signal through a chain of components, is commonly referred to as "daisy chaining". Either a single speaker pair (A) or two speaker pairs (A+B) can be connected to the amplifier SV-226MKII. Both outputs are identically provided with the stereo signal of the currently selected input source if outputs A and B have been activated (4). For each loudspeaker you will find two connector screws (positive + und negative ­) at the amplifier's backside. Each pair of screws has a label "R" or "L" nearby to clarify to which stereo channel it belongs. at the loudspeaker connection terminal there are similar connector screws or connectors. There, the polarity of each screw (+ or ­) can be identified as well and the other side of the speaker cable associated with this speaker must be attached. Make sure only connector screws of the same polarity will be connected by each speaker cable wire: a knob marked "+" in the amplifier's terminal must be connected with a speaker's connector screw marked "+" as well. If a second pair of loudspeakers is intended to be used, the connector screws of the lower row (speakers B) must be connected in a similar fashion to the additional speakers' input connectors. Many devices which can be controlled by a switching signal (not preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers), have two terminals which do not differentiate between input and output. "POWER CONTROL" sockets of preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers must not be interconnected!All receiving devices must not be connected to more than one preamplifier or integrated amplifier (directly or indirectly)! [. . . ] If necessary, exchange it with a suitable mains cable and push its plug firmly into wall socket and the device's power connector. No sound, appliance is switched on (one of the input LED's on the front of the device is lit) One of the audio settings of a connected DVD player (analogue/digital) has not been correctly selected. The remote control cannot perform any functions No batteries inserted in the remote control, batteries are not inserted correctly or are depleted. The line-of-sight between the remote control and the unit is obstructed, the range was exceeded or the hand unit was operated from a position too far to one side. [. . . ]
