Thank you for purchasing the BLADELIUS EMBLA silent
replay system.
Your EMBLA is a state-of-the-art unit, and has been
assembled by highly skilled BLADELIUS craftsmen to
provide you with many years of listening pleasure. Our unit's
esteem arises from the way we handle music-signals.
BLADELIUS develop products for people who wish
absolutely natural an enjoyable music reproduction.
Due to the extremely short signal paths designed and built
into this piece of equipment, a significant "burn-in" period is
required before the unit will reach its maximum sonic
potential.
We recommend the unit be left on (or in standby mode) at
all times, especially during the first 5-6 weeks of operation,
in order to speed the "burn-in" process.
For best results, the EMBLA should be left on or in the
standby mode at all times. The unit should not be switched
off by removing the power cord unless the unit will not be
used for a significant period of time (during vacations, etc.).
Reduction is the principle for the shaping of all BLADELIUS
components. The unobtrusive design harmonizes with
almost every environment and does not compete with your
personal sphere. The form refers to the tonal ability of the
product line, whose composure and strength manifests a
well-balanced equilibrium.
Balanced signal transmission means that two signal lines
are used which carry the same signal with opposite phase.
On the receiving side, the signals are mixed. Since any
noise interference that has arisen during transmission will
be present in both lines with identical phase, such noise is
cancelled out, leaving only the pure original signal.
Balanced connection therefore keeps the signal transfer
free from any kind of interference.
