If you are like us, the first thing you will want to do is to play your favourite

 

 

 

 

 

 

piece of music through your new SM6. The following instructions are written to

 

 

 

enable you to achieve this as quickly as possible. These are not comprehensive

 

 

 

instructions, but are designed to enable you to play music now!

 

Note:

 

 

 

Please take the time to read the SM6 manual thoroughly as it

 

 

 

 

incorporates many features, which will enhance its operation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Placement

 

 

 

The SM6 is a reference preamplifier and best results will be achieved when

 

 

 

placed on a solid surface with adequate ventilation. DO NOT place on a

 

 

 

carpeted floor or cover the preamplifier!

 

 

 

Turn off associated components

 

 

 

This minimises the potential to damage any other components when connecting

 

 

 

your SM6 into the system.

 

 

 

Connect SM6 to power amplifier

 

 

 

Connect the balanced (XLR) or unbalanced (RCA) outputs of your SM6 to the

 

 

 

appropriate inputs at the rear of your power amplifier.

 

Note:

 

 

 

Try to keep all interconnect cables as far from loudspeaker cables as

 

 

 

 

possible and well away from all AC mains leads.

 

 

 

Connect source component to SM6

 

 

 

Connect the relevant output of your source component to either the balanced

 

 

 

(XLR) or unbalanced (RCA) inputs of your SM6.

 

Note:

 

 

 

Be sure to set the balanced CD input switch to the appropriate position,

 

 

 

 

ON if using the balanced (XLR) inputs and OFF if using the unbalanced

 

 

 

(RCA) inputs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Switch on source component

 

 

 

Turn on the source component and make sure you have some program material

 

 

 

ready to play.

 

 

 

Switch on SM6

 

 

 

After checking the supply voltage compatibility with the voltage rating on the

 

 

 

SM6 rear panel, insert the power cord-set supplied into the rear of the unit and

 

 

 

into the wall. Switch on the socket at the wall and power up the SM6 using the

 

 

 

switch on the rear panel.

 

 

 

Switch on power amplifier

 

 

 

Turn on your power amplifier.
