It is particularly useful when using modern sources with high input signal (CD, DAC). Available input signal damping settings: „MUTE”, „-12 dB”, „-6 dB”, „0 dB” (no indication from any signaling diode). Every change of setting causes a temporary muting of the ASP-1000 output. P a g e... - Page 10 „INPUT” knob is used to choose the input. When switching between the inputs, a temporary silencing of the preamp output is expected. „DIRECT” input bypasses the preamplifier volume control to allow use in 5.1 surround system devices equipped with their own volume control. WARNING! „DIRECT”...
