This unit is designed to be earthed. Please therefore ensure that the AC power cable you select to use with the K-10 is a three wire type that is earthed. Failure to do so may render a potentially dangerous situation.

Placement requirements Owing to the substantial 27Kg weight of the K-10, this pre-amplifier should be placed on a firm, stable and solid surface. The use of a dedicated audio stand or plinth may provide some degree of increased performance. Areas of high humidity, direct sunlight, exposure to flammable gas or possible exposure to liquids are not suitable for placing the K-10 in.

In the balanced mode output impedances are 37 ohms per phase on the XLR with pin 2 being “Hot” and pin 3 being “Cold” while being 37 ohms on the RCA outputs. The K-10 is capable of output levels in excess of 20V RMS and is comfortable with loads as low as 1K ohm.

AC Inlet Unless otherwise specified, the K-10 is designed for 240V use. AC voltage is marked on the back of the K-10, just above the AC receptacle. This pre-amplifier will function to specification on any AC voltage between 210 and 245V.
Cleaning and maintenance The K-10 may be dusted down with a soft cloth. A cloth dampened in a mild solution of soap and warm water may be effective at removing grease. If you live in a corrosive environment it may be worthwhile to keep the K-10 covered with a large cloth when not in use.
