Manual

Unpacking and installation
Please ensure care is taken when unpacking the pre-amplifier. We recommend that you store the
packing materials in case the unit requires shipping at a later date. Also, check that no transit damage
has occurred before installing the pre-amplifier.
Select a suitable location for the unit, ensuring that adequate ventilation is provided as the pre-amplifier
generates considerable heat during normal operation. Avoid sitting the M One close to any other
equipment, such as a power amplifier, that may be generating a strong magnetic field, or in close
proximity to active mobile telephones.
The M One is capable of driving long interconnects to power amplifiers and so, if you are using mono
block amplifiers, it may be worthwhile to locate them close to the speakers. This will reduce the speaker
cable lengths and provide sonic improvements.
Connections
Line input
Eachline input is suitable for connecting to any line level music source. Line level sources include CD
players, radio tuners, televisions etc.Each line input consists of a pair of RCA connectors.The M One has 5
line inputs available.
Tape loop
The tape loop is available for connecting to a cassette desk. The 'tape in' connections should be
connected to the cassette deck's 'line out' and the 'tape out' connections should be connected to the
cassette desk's 'line in'. The tape in can be used as an additional line input if required. The RCA
connectors are marked red for the right channel and white for the left channel.
Unbalanced output
There are 2 sets of unbalanced outputs are provided for Bi-amplified systems. Both sets are identical and
may be used for single amplifier operation. The connectors are marked red for the right channel and
white for left channel.
Mains power connection
Use the supplied cable to connect the IEC inlet socket on the pre-amplifier to the mains supply. Ensure
the power is switched off when you do this.
NOTE: It is important that all connections are firm, secure and airtight. any oxidisation of the
interconnects will result in loss of performance. Always use high quality interconnects - Audio
Note interconnects are recommended, as they are manufactured to the same exacting
standards as all of our products.
