power outage occurs. Power is not disconnected when the Nº433 is in standby or sleep mode.

When power returns, the Nº433 will require a brief warm-up and break-in period (not the full 300 hours). It is recommended that you allow the Nº433 and other audio components to stabilize for a few minutes.

The Nº433 has four operating states:

1. Off

Power is disconnected from the ~ac mains connector.

2. Sleep Mode

Power is connected to a small power supply, communication circuits and control circuits. When taken out of sleep mode, the Nº433 requires a brief warm-up and break-in period. In sleep mode, the Nº433 consumes approximately 10W of power.

3. Standby

Power is connected to the main power supply and voltage gain stages. Power is not connected to the output (current gain) stage. Because voltage gain stages are kept at their normal operating temperatures, the Nº433 remains warmed-up to deliver an optimal performance. In standby, the Nº433 consumes approximately 100W of power.

4. On

Power is connected to the ~ac mains connector and all power amplifier components.
