Option Black Box Preamp - Octave PHONO MODULE Owner's Manual

5.2. Option Black Box Preamp

Description
An external upgrade of the power supply of the Octave Phono Module, the Black Box Preamp fea-
tures a sophisticated circuit with superior capacitors (produced in the EU and sourced from EPCOS),
and serves to increase the current flow while making the power supply immune to mains power
fluctuations. Low frequency grid disturbances are effectively suppressed. The Black Box Preamp is
connected to the Phono Module via a very special high current connector.
The Black Box Preamp is the perfect upgrade for demanding music lovers who don't accept any
compromise in their analogue playback system.
Operation
Legend
(1) Indicator The LED illuminates continuously when the Phono Module is on. The LED
LED goes out when the protection circuitry trips. This is normal, as the protection
circuitry cuts the power to the preamp.
