Page 6: Preparations
Preparations The Volatus 200 is a monaural power amplifier. Each left and right audio channel is operated by a separate amplifier unit in order to achieve the best stereo channel isolation and audio playback. Install Volatus 200 on a rigid and stable platform. A vibration‐free platform will help to extract optimal sonic performance. Connect the Volatus 200 to the mains with an AC power cord. Always use an AC power cord with ground wire. The Volatus 200 must be earthed, both for safety and sonic reasons. To get the best sound quality, make sure that all your Hi‐Fi equipments are operated from one mains socket. To prevent accidental short circuit, connect and secure all audio cable and speaker cable before powering on the amplifier. ... -
