OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for purchasing the Creek EVO. You are now in possession of a State of the Art integrated amplifier. The functions and operation of the EVO are very simple. However, the following notes are provided to explain all aspects of its design and use.

MAINS CONNECTION

When unpacking the amplifier please keep the packing material in a safe place for possible future use. In the pack there is a separate mains cable suitable for connecting to the mains supply in the country of use. The IEC socket end of the cable should be firmly inserted into the connector on the rear panel marked "Mains Input".

Before switching on the amplifier check the voltage selector switch on the rear panel to ensure it is set correctly to the voltage of the country in which the amplifier is being used.

Remember, do not overload the mains wall socket with too many plugs or adaptors. The high quality performance of the amplifier will be impaired if the electrical supply to it is in poor condition. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician or your dealer.

The ‘Mains Input’ connection is also fitted with a fuse. The value is clearly stated on the rear panel.

INPUT CONNECTION AND SWITCHING

The rotary selector switch on the left-hand side of the amplifier is used to select and listen to any of the desired inputs. There are four inputs plus tape which is selected by the button marked tape. The selected input will appear in the display.

As all the line input levels are the same, it is not absolutely necessary to use the precise inputs as designated. You may, for example, plug a CD player into the Tuner input and obtain exactly the same result or performance as the dedicated CD input. However, you need to be aware that the front panel display will always reflect the input as designated on the rear panel.

For added flexibility, the first input on the EVO can be used either for vinyl disc or auxiliary line. To connect your turntable, it is necessary to have the optional MM or MC phono plug-in board fitted. Alternatively Creek Audio produces a separate range of phono pre-amplifers. Ask your dealer for full details.

A pre-amp output and power amp input are shared by RCA sockets on the rear panel marked preamp.
