Cary Audio Design SLP 05 Car Amplifier User Manual


 
CONTROLS
6. TAPE/MONITOR
In the UP position this bat handle switch will activate the input jack on the rear panel
labeled tape-in. This may be used for a tape recorder or for any other line level input..
7. ON/HEADPHONES
In the UP position will engage the headphone amplifier in the SLP 05. You should
turn off your power amplifier when listening to the headphone section. Headphones
in the 30 to 300 ohm impedance range will work well with the transformer coupled
headphone section.
8. PREAMP/CINEMA
This toggle switch will provide a complete pass through of the Cinema inputs on the rear
panel to the power amplifier or amplifiers hooked to the SLP 05. The down position
creates this pass through. In the up position, the SLP 05 signals are active to the
matching power amplifiers. (Please note: with the power turned off, the default will be
Cinema by-pass).
9. LISTENING LEVEL
The large knob with the blue LED will control the input level to the preamplifier input
section. This controls the output level of the SLP 05 to the basic amplifier or amplifiers
attached to the SLP 05. This control is a motorized analog potentiometer. Depending on
the input sensitivity of the mating power amplifiers this listening level control may be
used in any position. Do not be concerned if,
for instance, you have the control up at say, 3:00 o’clock or even all the way up. This
does not stress the SLP 05 in any fashion. The SLP 05 is a Class A operating circuit and in
reality is running at full potential at all times. The listening level control simply controls
the input voltage level flow.
10. INPUT LEVEL
These two individual controls are used for individual left and right channel balancing.
In the full clockwise position these controls are basically out of the circuit and allow
full input levels to flow to the listening level (volume) control potentiometer.
11. HEADPHONES
Use dynamic 30-300 ohm headphones.
