Introduction In 1993 the »Golden Ear« Award was presented to SPL by Europe´s biggest HiFi- magazine »Audio«. In 1994 the »Stage Design« Award was presented to SPL by the »Artist« magazine for the exceptionally perfor- mance on stage. Operation safety Important security advices -please read them carefully!
Before connecting the S TEREO ITALIZER connected units. The S is available in two version up to autumn 1995: TEREO ITALIZER Version 1: unbalanced jack version (mono-1/4“ jacks wired tip hot) Version 2: professional version with unbalanced (switching mono- 1/4“jacks wired tip hot) and electronically balanced (3-pole XLR wired pin 2 hot) connectors.

In the field of electronic music, the S new range and depth to samplers and synthesizers and also to further process existing effects such as delay and reverberation. Even budget instruments and processors with limited audio bandwidths can be made sound full-bodied and detailed.
Sound Reinforcement Video & Film Post Production In live performance or in club installations, the S powerful ally in maintaining speech intelligibility under difficult conditions. It is also of great benefit in systems designed to play recorded music because the illusion of loudness can be maintained at lower absolute SPLs. This could be particularly beneficial with the introduction of new noise level legislation.
When setting up the S TEREO ITALIZER approach the controls in a specific order to avoid confusion and to achieve positive results right from the start. Use a CD as source. Set-up positions: to zero (center position) to M (counter clockwise) ARMONICS to 3,5 kHz (center position) to M...

A section within the S TEREO ITALIZER influences on the sound is P control. If you continue to turn the ROCESS control up, more of the signal is added to the B ROCESS sections whilst dominant mid frequencies are reduced according human hearing at the same time.
The V function switches the S ITALIZER CTIVE status LED indicates that the S TEREO The V function is a relais-hard-bypass function. In the event ITALIZER CTIVE of a power failure the S TEREO ITALIZER bypass (power failure safety). To increase the operational safety of the monitor loudspeakers you should not switch the S TEREO ITALIZER...

appropriate frequencies, thus changing the spectral content of the original signal. The S , however, relies on a more subtle method of TEREO ITALIZER amplitude-depending phase shifting. This does not involve altering the spectral composition of the signal but it does maintain the subjective impression of loudness.

The power cord connector is a 3-wire, U-ground, stan- dard IEC mains connector for a detachable power cord (enclosed). The unbalanced jack version (9319) has a two wire power cord obviating the need of the ground lift switch.
SPL electronics GmbH (hereafter called SPL) products are warranted only in the country where purchased, through the authorized SPL distributor in that country, against defects in material or workmanship. The specific period of this limited warranty shall be that which is described to the original retail purchaser by the authorized SPL dealer or distributor at the time of purchase.
