6. On each preamplifier channel, connect the supplied AC power cord to the IEC
power cord receptacle (48).
7. On each preamplifier channel, plug the AC power cord into AC power. The
front panel display (15) scrolls through EVOLUTION 2 SOFTWARE VERSION, and the
red stand-by LEDs illuminate (4), indicating that the Evolution Two preamplifier
is in stand-by mode. The scrolling stops when the Evolution Two is ready to be
powered on.
Note
Use only the power cord provided with the preamplifier channel to make the connec-
tion to AC power. Operation with a power cord other than the one supplied by Krell
could induce noise, limit current, or otherwise impair the ability of the preamplifier chan-
nel to perform optimally.
Operating the Evolution Two
(Linked Mode)
After the Evolution Two is connected to your system and to AC power, and the
front panel display (15) has stopped scrolling, begin operation:
1. Press the power button on either preamplifier chassis front panel or the pwr
key (3) on the remote control. The blue backlights illuminate, the red stand-by
LEDs (4) turn off, and the front panel displays read INITIALIZING. The front panel
displays show the factory default input: S-1 , and level: -INF . The Evolution Two
is now in the operational mode.
2. With the Evolution Two preamplifier output muted or the volume fully attenuat-
ed, select a source manually using the front panel input select buttons or the
input select keys on the remote control (8, 9, 10, 11). Start playing the source.
Use the level control knob or level keys (16) to set the volume to a comfortable
listening level.
3. To return the Evolution Two preamplifier to the stand-by mode, press the
power button or pwr key.
Krell recommends leaving the Evolution Two in the stand-by mode when it is
not playing music.
