MOON PSX 5.3 Power Supply
Operating the PSX 5.3
Since your MOON LP 5.3 Phono Preamplifier is not equipped with its own on/off power switch, powering it on and off is accomplished via the MOON PSX 5.3 Power Supply’s on/off switch, located on the rear panel.
We recommend that you leave your MOON PSX 5.3 Power Supply powered up at all times to maintain optimal sonic performance. In the event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days, powering off the MOON PSX 5.3 may not be a bad idea. Once fully
Powering up your MOON PSX5.3 for the first time
Prior to making the AC connection for the first time, make sure that every cable is properly connected to avoid any problems. Once the PSX 5.3 is connected to an AC source you may power it up by flicking the main rocker switch labeled “POWER” to the ‘1’ (on) position. The blue LEDs on the front panel of both the MOON PSX 5.3 and MOON LP 5.3 will illuminate at the same time.
On and Off Sequence
To avoid having any annoying noises (ie. “thumps” and “pops”) emanate from your speakers when powering your PSX 5.3 on or off, you should
1)Always power up your PSX 5.3 before powering up your preamplifier and/or integrated amplifier.
2)Always power down your PSX 5.3 after powering down your preamplifier and/or integrated amplifier.
When you power down the MOON PSX 5.3, the blue LEDs on both units will remain illuminated for up to 10 seconds; this is normal and is the result of the large amount of storage capacitance found in the MOON PSX 5.3 Power Supply.
