D. BASIC INSTALLATION AND OPERATION Before you install the STEALTH into your sy.stem we recommend that you follow these g.uidelines in choosing’ the location. This will facilitate a clean, trouble-free installation. CAUTION: When making connections to this component or any other, make sure tlie power amplifier is OFF and the preamplifier is in the MUTE or STANDBY mode. 1. Although well shielded, the processor should not be p.laced in close proximity to hum-sensitive components ~i.e. preamps, tur

E. INPUT AND OUTPUT CONNECTIONS 1. Connect the Stealth analog output to the line level input of your preamplifier. The STEALTH is equipped with two output configura- tions: Single-ended via RCA connectors and Balanced via XLR connectors. If your pr.eamplifier has high lev~ balanced inputs we recommencl the balanced outputs ot t~.e processor b.e us.ed. There are considerable sonic ben- efits associatecl witt~ the use of this type of interconnec- tion..H.igh quality tri-axial cable should be used

NOTE: If the digital source is ON and the signal LED does not illuminate, check to make sure the digital inter- connect cable is secure at both ends or is not.in need of repair. NOTE: Care should be taken in selecting the type of cable used to link the digital source to your processor. If coaxial cable is to be..~used, it should be non-capacitive and have a bandwid~Sn excess of 10MHZ to prevent drop-out errors. NOT.E: If an optical cable is selected we strongly re,com- mencl that it be a high qu

F. PROCESSOR OPERATION AND DIGITAL TAPE LOOP 1. Select an input with.the Input switch. Notice the Signal LED will illuminate when the digital source is turned on and has linked with the processor. Once this link is com- plete the processor is ready to pass a signal. 2. Be sure that your preamplifier’s volume control is completely turned to the OFF (lowest volume) position. 3. Turn ON your components, remembering that the last component to be energized should be your amplifier. The amplifier shou

G. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q. My CD player has both fibre optic and coaxial outputs. Which one should I use? A. Given a choice, we prefer the AT&T optical link due to its ability to completely isolat,e the grounds between the digital source component anti the Processor. This minimizes the possibifity of ground loops in the digital components. The optional AT&T format also has the added benefit of substantially higher bandwidth than coax or the standard fibre optic interface.. Q. Will I damage my S

Q. I have some very fine audiophile interconnect cable which has superior sonic characteristics. Can I use this ¯ for my coaxial digital input? A. You may experiment with any high quality cable. Do note, that most audio interconnect cable is not designed " to carry the ultra high frequency information of the digi- tal bit stream. NOTE: For the STEALTH, we recommend non-capaci- tive coaxial cable which has a bandwidth in excess of 10MHZ and excellent shielding properties. Q. While listening to my
