INTRODUCTION _______________________________________________ Thank you for your trust and for choosing the Fezz Audio Silver Luna amplifier. At times when the audio world becomes increasingly digital, Fezz Audio does not forget about analog lovers. Silver Luna is the first Polish, series produced integrated vacuum tube amplifier, which is designed for both people starting out in their audio adventure, but also for those experienced with the “vacuum tube sound”...
INSTALATION OF THE DEVICE _______________________________ UNPACKING Please kindly check if the packaging of the Silver Luna amplifier has not been damaged during transit. If you find any damages, please immediately contact your dealer. Remove the amplifier and accessories from the packaging. Make sure that the content is not damaged.
DESCRIPTION OF THE ELEMENTS OF THE AMPLIFIER 1) Volume control 2) Input Source Selector 3) Sockets for the right channel vacuum tubes 4) Sockets for the left channel vacuum tubes 5) The housing for the power supply transformer 6) The housing for the output transformers...
INSTALLATION OF THE VACUUM TUBES Place the Silver Luna amplifier on a stable surface. Carefully remove the vacuum tubes from their packaging and install them in the appropriate sockets, as shown below, and adhering to the numbering scheme as identified on the packaging. Please pay attention to the diameter of the socket and to the appropriate orientation of the vacuum tube pins.
The sound quality may be degraded as a result of vibrations. Therefore we recommended to place the amplifier on a flat and stable surface. ATTENTION - Never place the Fezz Audio Silver Luna amplifier in the vicinity of sources that produce large amounts of heat.
5) The IEC power supply cord socket 6) Mains switch The figure above shows the rear panel view of the Fezz Audio Silver Luna tube amplifier, together with a description of the inputs and outputs allowing for connection of the other elements of your audio system.
HOOK-UP OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD Make sure that the amplifier is switched off. Connect the power cord to the IEC socket on the rear panel of the amplifier. The amplifier is designed to operate at a rated voltage of 230V / 50Hz. Connecting the device to a mains network with incorrect parameters can lead to damage that is not covered by manufacturers warranty HOOK-UP OF THE SIGNAL SOURCES...
Select the source of signal using the rotary selector switch located on the front panel. Set the volume control to minimum. Turn on the mains power of the Silver Luna amplifier – the vacuum tubes shall begin to glow. Make sure that the sound source is turned on, playing, and then gradually increase the volume level by turning the potentiometer.
ADJUSTMENT AND CONTROL OF THE BIAS CURRENTS _________ Setting and control of the bias is a procedure that is required after the first switch-on and after the initial burn-in period of the amplifier. Later on, we recommend to check these parameters once a month. Please make yourself acquainted with the locations of the measuring points: •...

THE PROCEDURE FOR ADJUSTMENT OF BIAS FOR THE RIGHT CHANNEL 1) Use a digital multi-meter. Set it to either automatic mode, or to manual mode, to an operating measurement range of 750mV DC. Next, please measure the differential voltage between MR2 and MR3. 2) Adjust the balance of the BIAS by gently rotating the BIAS balance potentiometer AR2, so as to achieve a measured differential value as close as possible to 0 mV DC (+/-20mV).
“BURNING-IN” OF THE AMPLIFIER _____________________________ Any tube amplifier requires an initial pre-heating (or "burn-in") period, in order so that it achieves its full sonic potential. This is due to the presence of residual polarization of dielectric elements and due to a necessary stabilization of working parameters of the vacuum tubes.
LIMITED WARRANTY CONDITIONS _____________________________ The manufacturer, the company Fezz Audio warrants that this Silver Luna amplifier is free from defects in materials and in workmanship. This warranty is valid for a period of 24 months from the date of purchase.
