Operation
Remote Control only Functions
Input 1-6: Allows direct selection of each of the 6 inputs of the Reference
10.
Processor (PassThru): Selects external A-V (home theater) processor as
input source and controller of volume level for R and L channels. Reference
10 provides Unity Gain when this input is selected.
When engaged, 'Pass Thru' will appear in the display, and the gain is fixed
and not adjustable. The preamp will also mute the input after 'Pass Thru'
is engaged.
Before unmuting the 'Pass Thru' input, be sure to turn the volume down on
the home theater processor. Never connect a source with a fixed level output
(DVD player, tuner, CD, etc.) to the 'Pass Thru' input or the amplifier(s) and
speaker system could be damaged when the Reference 10 is unmuted.
BAL/SE: Select as appropriate for each input. For source components
having balanced (XLR) connections to the Reference 10, select BAL. For
single-ended (RCA) sources, select SE. Once selected for an input source,
the setting is memorized.
Invert: Inverts absolute phase of the output signal.
Mono: Sums L and R input for mono output from any source selected.
Display Down/Display Up (DSP DN/DSP UP): Decreases/increases
display intensity, offering 6 levels of brightness and display 'off'. In display
'off' mode the display will illuminate for 10 seconds when any button (except
Power on/off) is selected, allowing for control function navigation.
Balance (BAL L/BAL R): Adjusts balance left or right. Adjustment
appears in display window as movable marker on bar graph. Useful for
compensating for uneven speaker placement or imbalanced output from a
phono cartridge.
Hours: When pressed, displays number of operating hours vacuum tubes
have been in service. NOTE: After replacing tubes, this function should
be reset to '0'. See further instructions under 'Hours Meter' in the section
'Interactive Touch Screen Operation' for details.
