9 Appendix B: Setting Sensitivity for Best Gain Staging
Optimized system gain structure maximizes signal to noise within the system. Adjusting your amplifi er to fi t within an optimized system gain structure is accomplished by properly setting both the sensitivity and attenuation controls within the amplifi er.
With other amplifi ers, it is often necessary to apply attenuation in order to achieve the desired sound pressure level. Large amounts of attenuation are not necessary with
Example: Suppose that you are using an
Note: as indicated in the online appendix, the list of possible sensitivity settings is different for each position of the max input setting. If, while adjusting sensitivity/gain in your amplifi er, you do not fi nd the setting you need, try changing the status of the max input setting and search again.
