    1. Basic information about the C5 / R5 1.1 Mechanical construction The case is made of magnetic shielding steel and aluminum. The audio-connectors are all gold plated to minimize electrical losses and provide long lasting perfect contacts. 1.2 Power supply A switch mode power supply delivers clean, hum-free electrical energy for the digital and analogue sections of D/A-converter and the preamplifier.

    Thus if the upsampling converter has a stable jitter free clock the upsampled signal contains less jitter than the original digital signal. The musical advantages of re-clocking are the second reason why the AVM EVOLUTION C5 is equipped with a brand-new upsampling circuitry and an additional stable oscillator circuit.
  • Page 6: Filtering

    1.5.3 Filtering If a digital signal is converted to analogue the analogue signal contains not only the original signal, but as well it’s mirror image which lies in the frequency domain beyond one half of the sampling frequency. This mirror image (aliasing) can cause unwanted interference with the original signal and thus must be filtered out before passing the signal to the amplifier.

  • Page 8: Installation And Cooling

    2.1 Installation and cooling The EVOLUTION C5/R5 can become hot depending on demanded output power and environmental temperature. Therefore it is important, that the cooling air can flow unhinderedly into the air inlet in the bottom and flow out through the holes in the rear panel. Direct exposure to sunlight is not recommended because this will heat up the unit.

    3. Basic operation In case the C6m was not connected to mains a self test will be performed when it is switched on by mains switch (30) for the first time. The unit checks it’s configuration and if all installed components work properly. If a DAB-Tuner is installed, the unit will scan the DAB band in order to indentify the available DAB stations.

    4. Menu system The inspiration C6m offers a lot of custom specific settings in it's menu system. To enter the menu just tip on the button MENU (6). The button now changes to EXIT. A second tip on this button leads You to the normal operating mode.
  • Page 13: Subboost

    4.13 SubBoost If You use small speakers You can switch bass boost "on" to enhance the reproduction of low frequency range. Subsonic frequencies will be suppressed in order not to damage the speakers. 4.14 Loudness If You listen to music at low levels, You often recognize that bass and treble reproduction are weak. This is because the human ear is not sensitive to bass and treble at low sound levels.

    5. Remote control The main functions of the C5/R5 can be controlled by the RC3: ON/OFF, Volume control, source select, Station select (only for stations stored in memory, see 3.5.2 Station memory), PLAY/PAUSE, STOP, SKIP. The RC3 works up to distances of 7 meters. For best function point with the RC3 to the front panel of your hi- fi set.
  • Page 15: Cleaning

    6. Cleaning Use a soft cloth and normal glass cleansing fluid. CAUTION: Make sure that no fluid comes into the unit. Do not use scouring cleaners. They may damage the surface. 7. If something doesn’t work..Some putative defects are often caused by mistakes in operation. Sometimes other units connected to the amplifier can cause problems.
