AYRE K-5xe - Manual (Page 12)

the K-5xe MP can accept either balanced or
unbalanced signals.
To activate the “Processor Pass-Through” mode for
that input, remove the AC power from the K-5xe
MP
for at least 10 seconds. Then, while pressing the
input selector button corresponding to the chosen
surround-sound processor input, re-connect the AC
power.
The chosen input is now programmed for “Processor
Pass-Through” operation, disabling the now
redundant volume control of the K-5xe
MP . When
that input is selected, the preamplifier section of the
K-5xe
MP is set to unity gain (0 dB), and the volume
is controlled directly from the surround-sound
processor. The volume indicator of the K-5xe
MP will
display “PP” to show that the “Processor
Pass-Through” mode has been selected for that
input.
To clear the “Processor Pass-Through” mode from
an input and restore normal operation, remove the
AC power from the K-5xe
MP for at least 10 seconds.
Then, while pressing the “Mute” button, re-connect
the AC power.
Break-In
100 to 500 hours of music
played through the system will
ensure full break-in.
Due to the manufacturing processes used for the
printed circuit boards, wires, and capacitors, a
break-in period is necessary for the preamplifier to
reach its full performance potential.
