V. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. P
OWER SWITCH
After having connected the different inputs to the corresponding appliances (CD player,
tape, tuner...) and the outputs to the dedicated appliances (amplifiers, crossovers…), the
VP100
Reference preamplifier can be switched on using the power switch located on the rear
panel.
It is advised not to switch off the VP100 Reference , to fully and instantly benefit from its
maximum musical quality. However, if you are meant to keep away for a long time (as for
holidays for instance), or in the case of any storm risk, it is considered safe to switch the
appliance off, with the rest of your Hi-Fi elements.

NSTALLED CARDS
The VP100 Reference preamplifier is provided with three cards:
) The motherboard processes the high level input signals and the main amplifier
(left/right) outputs
) The phono (RIAA) card is used as vinyl turntable preamplifier. There are 4 RCA
input plugs, to handle the MM (2 RCA) and MC (2 RCA) formats.
) The Subwoofer card (« sub ») permits to drive a subwoofer. The RCA and XLR
outputs use a stereo channels summation. Its presence within the preamplifier
enables the pink noise and subwoofer channel parameters (volume and crossover
frequency and phase adjustment) within the set-up program.
