Goldmund MIMESIS 20H User Manual page 8

ATTENTION:
The Mimesis 20H does not have an
input selection switch between RCA,
XLR, Optical Toslink and
connectors. Only one connection per
input can be used at once for digital
Input 3, 4 and 5. Each output provides a
signal on both outputs (RCA and XLR).
However for a best sound quality
connect only one connector per output,
coaxial or XLR.
2 FIRST INSTALLATION & CONNECTIONS
(Ctd.)
2.1 SOURCES CONNECTION
Connect the CD/DVD transport or any other digital sources like a Goldmund Digital
Preamplifier to the back panel digital inputs and outputs of the Goldmund Mimesis 20H,
using either a coaxial RCA or the AES/EBU XLR connectors.
On the rear panel, connect the RCA or the XLR inputs by switching the input selector
ATT
buttons located on the front panel, you can select between CHANNEL 1 to CHANNEL 6
sources which are propagated by the digital input cable.
When the input source is connected, you can connect two analog output RCA jack to the
analog preamplifier line level input (left & right) or the power amplifier analog input, using a
high quality analog interconnect like the Goldmund Lineal Interconnect.
With the Mimesis 20H Balanced analog built-in circuitry, you may also use the XLR
balanced analog outputs to connect to a balanced input source. However, Goldmund has
traditionally always preferred the use and quality of unbalanced connections.
