Audio Note M10 Line - Manual (Page 16)

OPERATION
Once all the connections are completed and checked, ensure that the volume
controls are at the minimum setting (rotated all the way left).
Ensure that all source components connected to the M10 Line preamplifier are
switched ON. Source components should always be the FIRST components to be
switched on and the LAST components to be switched off.
Ensure that all power amplifiers connected to the M10 Line preamplifier are
switched OFF. Any power amplifiers in use should be the LAST components to be
switched on, and the FIRST components to be switched off.
The above procedure minimizes the possibility of loud noises produced by
components at switch on being passed to the loudspeakers and possibly causing
damage.
Turn on the M10 Line preamplifier by using the rocker switches located on the rear
panels of each Galahad power supply unit above the mains inlet IEC socket.
The M10 Line preamplifier requires approximately 45 seconds to initialize before it is
ready for operation.
Input Selector
Turn the selector to the source you wish to listen to.
Volume Controls
There are two separate volume controls, one dedicated to
each channel. For a correctly produced Stereo or Mono
recording, adjust both channels to the same level. If it is
necessary to equalize the relative levels for each channel,
adjust the controls separately to achieve the desired balance.
